The Legend Of King Arthur | King Arthur's Britain (Part 1 of 3) | Real Royalty

Anyone else binge watching this channel? I've learned more here than from any history class.

I live in Chichester which still has its Roman walls & is near to Fishbourne Roman palace, which is next door to equally historic Bosham, home to King Harold and reputedly his burial place in its church, built by his mother. Nearby Kingley Vale is an ancient yew tree forest once inhabited by druids which contains trees over 2 thousand years. There are hill forts aplenty atop the ancient South Downs way...... I'm VERY lucky to have been born here in this timeless landscape.

Facts. In the future, people will call us myths and legends. Stories have been past down the generations. No one simply "makes up" a story without looking at our past for inspiration.

I love it when science meets myths. Great video, insightful and entertaining!

Nothing like a good Francis Pryor documentation to make your day.

This series is absolutely wonderful. I watched Part 3 first. I am thoroughly enjoying it, thank you for posting.

A very interesting perspective. Thank you. I'm a fan of King Arthur.

Thank you for a wonderful video and perspective. From a fan in San Francisco.

"As an Archeologist I have always been skeptical about King Arthur"...Well that's not your job is it? King Arthur is an historical legend and means a lot to the British people not to be dismissed out of hand right at the beginning of your video. A good Archeologist goals are to document and explain the origins and development of human culture, understand culture history, chronicle cultural evolution, and study human behavior and ecology, for both prehistoric and historic societies. Also the sarcastic remarks might well have been left out.

In the background the movie that's being filmed that version of King Arthur was hands down the best I was a little skeptical at first but I think they got everybody in the cast spot on and the story to me seems a little more realistic

47:26: "It has long been imagined that the figure who led this resurgence was King Arthur." Hmm? OH! Right! I'm watching a video about King Arthur, lol. No shade to the video, it's all interesting stuff. Just definitely went on a wild history trip to get back to this.

Scroll the video all the way to the end and press replay cheat way to not get no adverts thank me later

Like. Of course, Rome did withdraw its legions from Britain, but not Roman colonists. it was no a sudden switching off the lights. The inter-ethnic integration had been going for 4 centuries. Just like India did not go back into its previous stage of history after the end of the British Radj.

Am not surprise that the Celts had a good relation ship with Rome before things went sour. Celtic race went from Turkey to Ireland therefore they had contact with the Latin races. Plus Latin and Celtic are sister languages very similar. They understood each other. Culture wise Latins were more advance.

Read Mary Stewart's "The Crystal Cave" and the "Hollow Hills," they are fictional but they contain a lot of these ideas even though written in the 1970s. Good show though!

Posts whinging about adverts are far more tedious than figuring out how to avoid adverts.

Arthur was know king at all. He was known as the the “Boar of Cornwall”. His infamous knights of the round table truly were bloodthirsty murderous thugs. Merlin on the other hand was truly a man of peace, for a time. Merlin was born on May 1st, 449 a.d. His first name, Merlin means the one with great knowledge. The Welsh version of Merlin is: Myrrdin, which means ‘the laughing one’. His last name was Emrys (Welsh), which means Ambrosia/Ambrosius, so he was also called Merlin/Myrddin Ambrosius Merlin’s mother was a daughter of the King Of the Demetier region. Merlin's father, King Morvyrn, was a visionary, and these visionary capabilities led to Merlin being referred to as a "scion of the devil," a magician, a sorcerer. The naïveté and simplicity of the Christian interpretation held that Merlin and his father's paranormal abilities meant that they were satanical, and that father and son were allied with the devil and thus fathered by him. Merlin was also a bard, a doctor, a teacher, a prophet, a historian and ultimately the Prince and King of the Druids of the Demetier tribe from South Wales. This whole area was the homeland of the Celts. The Plejaren Keridwena, who was a sister of Ptaah’s grandfather Ezekiel. Thus an Aunt of Sfaath, was sent on a mission to instruct Merlin in Henoch's teachings. Merlin, being a Celtic druid, was chosen in the hoped that with his help, Arthur, would transform Henoch's teachings of love, peace, harmony and the freedom and equality for all people into reality. The Holy Grail? A Grail was a sacred place with a spring, usually located on a mountain that the Celts considered a nature sanctuary, where also a druid’s grove was erected, surrounded by trees and other plants and was where the druids meditated in deep consciousness-related interconnection with water, the earth and plants as well as with the inexhaustibleness of life. These holy places were intended as places of meditation for the druids. They were numerous and indeed existed wherever druids lived and fulfilled their obligations. Over the years and centuries after this time Christian writers changed the word grail to mean the actual vessel, or cauldron into which Myrddin put Keridwena’s transcription of Henoch’s teaching. This is a fabrication woven into the stories and passed down through the ages as scripture which are nothing but falsehoods and fantasies. The grail was a place and had nothing to do with the apparent ’‹holy grail’ of Christianity which was only based on lies and deception; it never existed and therefore was not used by Joseph of Arimathea to collect the blood of Jmmanuel (Jesus) at his crucifixion as Christian lore attests, which on top of everything, represents a mishmash of different time periods, given that Myrddin existed about 350 years after the death of Jmmanuel. The true ‘holy grail’ only existed as a holy place.

I have been searching for this for a long time now. Artorius!!!!

Alan Wilson and Baram Blackett know the History very well, Wales and the Welsh know most about Arthur, mind you there were 2 Arthurs 2 centuries apart , one a decendant of the other, South Wales is were to look

"Now all of this would be fine, were it not complete rubbish!" Don't hold back! Say what's on your mind, my friend! (And yes, he's convinced me to his point, absolutely.) Question though - he says Britain hasn't been invaded since 1066, and many people say that, but what about Henry Tudor and his band of foreign mercenaries invading in 1485 to take England by conquest, which he did? I've heard that called an invasion too, and I think it has all the signs.
