There were few cultural innovations in the crusader states. The Franks habitually followed the customs of their Western homelands. Three notable exceptions were the establishment of military orders, warfare and fortifications. In 1119 the order of the Poor Fellow-Soldiers of Christ and of the Temple of Solomon was foundered for the protection of pilgrims by a group of knights attached to the Holy Sepulchre. This gave the order the common name of Templars. The order was recognised at the council of Nablus. The order's name derives from Solomon's Temple, the Frankish name for the Al-Aqsa Mosque on Temple Mount. In 1129 an embassy by leaders Hugues de Payens and Godfrey de Saint-Omer to Europe gained recognition from the Latin Church at the Council of Troyes. Papal support, privileges and immunities followed along with donations of estates across Western Europe and the Levant. This enabled the order to provide the crusader states with troops, funding, loans and luxury accommodation for travellers. The Knights Hospitaller or Order of Knights of the Hospital of Saint John of Jerusalem began in the 1080s with an Amalfitano funded hospital in Jerusalem. The Frank's arrival brought significant local and western donations. By 1113 the order had transformed from a lay to a papally recognised religious organisation. It became an enormous concern. Extensive estates in Italy, Catalonia and Southern France provided funding for hundreds of beds serving patients from all religions and genders. In 1126 military members formed part of the army from Jerusalem that attacked Damascus.During the 12th and 13thcenturies these communities of warrior monks married the medieval ideals of monasticism and knighthood They became Latin Christendom's first professional armies and supranational organisations with autonomous powers in the region. The template presented by these two organisations led to the formation of further orders in the Iberian Peninsula and Christendom's northern borders. In 1180 the castles the military orders controlled, 700 knights, sergeants, clerics, layman and servants matched all other military resources available to Jerusalem.
