How would Teancum know which tent to steal into? According to Cleon Skousen, no doubt this tent [of the king] would have been readily identified because field troops must always know where their commander is located so they can rally around him in case of a surprise attack; therefore commanders in the field nearly always hoisted a prominent banner near their headquarters.
