An archbishop (also known as princess, bishop-knight compound or hawk in chess.com) is a fairy chess piece that is a combination of the bishop and the knight. Although it cannot just jump over other pieces when moving like a bishop, it may do so when moving as a knight. It can also checkmate all by itself, like the more powerful piece, amazon. (To learn more about an amazon click on the link below 👇 ) The archbishop is also one of the more popular variant pieces.https://www.chess.com/blog/HetanshM/what-is-an-amazon
