[MR] BBC: King Arthur Legend

[Garth G. Groff]

Noble friends, Greetings.

This morning the BBC had an interesting commentary/analysis on the 
endurance of the King Arthur legend: 
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-13696160 . The commentary includes 
some quotes from Monty Python's Terry Jones. Some food for thought here 
about symbols of a "golden age", which in some ways relates to our 
recreation of the "good parts" of the middle ages. A really nice photo 
of Glastonbury Tor opens the article.

What isn't mentioned is that even we Scots make a claim on Arthur 
(however spurious). Otherwise, why is one of the hills in Edinburgh 
called "Arthur's Seat"?

Kind regards,


Lord Mungo Napier, That Crazy Scot
