National Geographic - The Truth Behind King Arthur (2012)

Date: 13 Mar 2013 13:01:46

The round table at Winchester was in fact made by Edward III; it was repainted by Henry VIII in the 1500s depicting Henry at the top of the table as the legendary Arthur.

The Queen’s robbing room in the House of Lords of the British Parliament was redecorated with Arthurian themes after the fire of 1834, which required Parliament to be rebuilt.

Monks at Glastonbury Abbey in the 1100s reportedly discovered two bodies buried in the abbey. One was a man, the other a woman with still-intact golden hair. A lead cross was also claimed to have been found that proclaimed the bodies to be that of King Arthur and Queen Guinevere.

The 12th-century writer Geoffrey of Monmouth was the first to put down into prose the legend of Arthur.

King Arthur is not only a British hero, but also has links to France, Iceland, Italy, Norway, and Hungry, proving how powerful the legend is.

One theory of the origins of King Arthur suggests that he actually derived from the Celtic bear god Artos.
