the prophecy makes sense... we just have the wrong interpretation, it's the Iron Age, steel hasn't been invented yet, and you need a flat stone to carve the shape of a blade, and pure hot metal in it... if you know how to do it you don't get a wonder sword, but you can arm an army... but first, you need to know how to make charcoal, to raise the temperature up to melt the iron ore... so that's the only magic involved, turn the wood to charcoal, and the ore to a sword...

There wasn't an Arthur, at least not like he's been described in medieval literature. The guy that Nennius, Gildas or Bede mentioned would've been very different from the story told by Geoffrey Monmouth,vChrétien de Troyes, or Thomas Mallory. The myth is very likely the result of merging old legends with semi-mythical figures and real ones, as well as more or less mythicized events and places from several different time periods. It's not really possible to find the remains of the real Arthur if there wasn't a real Arthur, at least not exactly or not just one. There were descendants of Roman soldiers and officials, as well as many Welsh kings and chieftains in the 5th and 6th centuries, but not an Arthur, a Merlin, an Excalibur, a Round Table, a Camelot or anything like that, at least not like the books describe and probably not at the same time and the same place.

Still, I doubt there would be THAT ONE man so relevant that he'd be buried there and called specifically King Arthur. Someone kind of important was buried there originally, possibly a general or a political leader.

I think there was a folklore character called King Arthur/whoever existed but he has been turned into a myth as well as his whole history. All has been mainly lost in the mists of time which makes him even more romantic and interesting. The country was different back then and Glastonbury tor was surrounded by water as were other areas. Perhaps even Avalon, which today could also be just another hill. Leave the myth alone. Leave people to dream of Arthur, Merlin, Camelot. Leave Arthur's bones and myth to sleep in peace.

"2:54" I wonder who might be those invaders? I would first try to pinpoint the time period and compare the bones of different "races" from the same period. If the Arthur legend originated in the period of the foreign invasion of Britain, there would be evidence of two different bone structures. And there must have been a battle. Britain is a place with "natives" and "foreigners", probably very close to King Arthur.

Parts of your introduction are, I think, misleading. In the Roman period and the centuries thereafter, there was no sense of "the British" as a distinct people or "Britain" as a distinct realm. We were part of the westernmost division of the Roman empire and therefore a single state and culture with western France and the Low Countries. This is the context of the Arthurian legends and why they were preserved as much in France as in Britain. The conflicts against "foreigners" is not about an invasion of Britain but about the civil wars that caused the collapse of Roman unity and authority. Arthur, like his contemporary Aegidius in Soissons, restores Roman order for a time. So I don't know if people are looking for his bones in the right place, but they definitely aren't looking in the right place for his meaning.

it's strange to think of people as long as the twelfth century being excited about discovering something historical.. i only imagine people of the past creating historical documents and events to be observed by us, but i guess in every time period people think they are in the modern present times and look back on famous people and events of the past. i guess i'm mentally stereotyping everyone in the past as a separate kind of mind frame 🙂no one ever woke up and said "another day in one thousand BC...i feel so historical! i wonder what BC means..." 😀

Actually it’s more likely taken from the ‘sword ON the stone’ term. Because many of those ancient tribes used to worship ‘sacred stones’ and would often lay their sword/weapon upon the stone in offering or during prayer.

In the next century, when the Puritans/Roundheads went on their iconoclastic rampage, their objective was more specifically destruction for the sake of destruction, trying to eradicate everything that remained of monarchy or of any religious observances that didn't conform to Puritan ideas.

Nonsense. The history of Britain is in many thousands of books and Encyclopedia Britannica. And the royal family has no governmental power. We don't know much about Arthur because he supposedly lived about 450AD, when there were almost no written records.

Why do you keep referring to Guinevere? She wasn't even mentioned until the 12th century by Geoffrey of Monmouth. 600 years too late. Arthur, if he existed, was a displaced British king who lost his lands to the Saxon invasion....But more likely he is like Robin Hood....a mixture of many people to validate a myth.

Very possible. But I have found in other subjects when there's not enough 100% historical evidence for someone or something they just say its a mixture. Maybe this isn't the same for Arthur but I've found that in other subjects and always felt it was an easy excuse

Poor documentary it’s bothered bout is slaggging archaeologist off and what’s with the stupid dramatic music

News alert...Arturo never existed!!!!!! Ciao 😂

why waste time on mythological characters ???

Avalon is in fire. Arthur was burnt on a pire. Yes Arthur was Christian. But somehow was sent to Avalon? . He pulled the heaviest sword out a stone. My ancestor (Loot Jackson) was arrested for killing a rabbit by a giant man named Tristan. Tristan had a Trist with a noble girl named Quinn. . Loot was thrown into Saint Michel kitchen. Loot lost his arm defending Quinn. Huh. . Could this Arthur have sent his knights to Jerusalem on the first crusades? He was looking for the Grail.

Awful, maddening soundtrack.

Jesus is your King!
