The headline says he was a Crusader but the article only states only that he lived around “the Crusader era”. Without more evidence it’s entirely possible that he was not a Crusader, but maybe some other type of fighting man. In other words, the title is click bait. It would not elicit as many clicks if they had simply said they found the grave of a guy from long ago with swords.

May have been a Teutonic from the Northern Crusades.

Yup, but the headline is what we've gotta use.
