At last everyone knows the truth about the original Arthur, he was not a
king, he came from Northern England, and his only claim to fame was that
he
killed a lot of Celts. Somehow this guy became a Celtic hero, perhaps due
to
some kind of Celtic masochism, the guy who did not kill Saxons but killed
Celts instead became a great guy among the Celts, and no doubt among the
Saxons as well for doing the job for them. So let's turn to king Arthur of
Tintagel. Who was this guy? First there probably were minor kings of
Tintagel, archaeology has shown that Tintagel was an im****tant place
during
the sub-Roman era. Second the name Arthur would have become popular due to
some kind of Celtic masochism, so there could well have been a minor king
of
Tintagel called Arthur. All we have are legends, but what are these
legends,
there could be grains of truth in them about a real Celtic hero called
Arthur who was a real kind and who fought real Saxons.
