THANK YOU!!! While I dearly love all the retellings of the Arthurian saga, I
think this point is the most important. Without harder historical proof....
they are legends, stories, tales...... albeit good ones.
Don't try to force them into a mold of "historical accuracy", when they're
not. Enjoy them for what they ARE, and let the rest .... just rest.
