   Ahh yes, the original source of Fate and Saber, I really love how Sir Thomas Malory has written less on his book than Fate Stay Night has of 80000 words or something

   Been watching Bernard cornwell’s excellent series the winter 🥶 king 👑 so much greatness!! But no king 👑 he was 😂it would be horrible if Alfred the great 😊 (literally a Saxon) transformed into Arthur. I mean he came so much later and the saxons were literally enemies. At least use a celt or Roman prototype la 😂

   He was a cymro who fought against the saxons.
   The confusion comes from racism from the english. Also realising that british history pre 430 isnt english history. Much to share.
   The english try to blur our history into theirs. Whilst pretending the gospel came with them.
   Dont forget st patrick was also a cymro.

   To use Alfred the Great, the quintessential Anglo-Saxon King as a template for Arthur, the quintessential Romano-British leader, is heresy, and I speak as a direct descendant of Alfred. Arthur's enemies were Anglo-Saxon, although sometimes he fought rival British leaders. This includes the brother of Gildas, Caw the king of Strathclyde. This is why Gildas never mentions him, but does refer to someone called the Bear. This is the meaning of the name Arthur. It was a nickname, not a real name, which is why no-one can find the real Arthur. My best bet is a Prince of Powys called Owein Dantgwyn, who lived circa 470 to 517, his father was Ythyr (Uther), would have fought at Badon and was deposed and killed by his wicked nephew. He was of the family of the Goddodin, who came from Scotland and took over Wales, giving their names to various areas, and were arch enemies of Vortigern, who invited the Saxons into Britain. Owein's family may have been connected with Ambrosius Aurelianus. Alfred the Great was a fine king, brought the Vikings to a halt, but he lived 300 years after Arthur and had nothing to do with him and his legend.

   The reference to King Alfred and Arthur is poorly explained in the video. American simplicity I guess. I think they mean that the “traits” of Alfred the Great added to the idea of “the good king” – which were transposed into the legendary Arthur. In the same way that the arms, armour, chivalry, and courtly love of the French Middle Ages often do. Arthur “the bear” was almost certainly a Romanised west Briton leader, who gained a victory of the saxons that held them off for almost a generation. Beyond that we know nothing.

   This debate about Arthur has been settled once and for all by Blackett and Wilson. King Arthur was called exactly that in the Charters of Llandaff Cathedral. He was King of Gwent in the late 500s and was also called King Arthrwys in the Charters. Wilson and Blackett have unearthed his headstone with his name on it and a sixth century silver cross inscribed Pro Anima Artorius ( Latin version of his name, as was usual with the Church) For the Soul of Arthur. In the Bodlian library the Bruts of England, no less, state plainly that Arthur was crowned king in Glamorgan (it included parts of Gwent then). The Battle of Badon was nowhere near.Bath. It was at Mynydd Baedan, near Maesteg, where the large burial mounds are called to this day the Mynwent Y Milwyr, the cemetery of the soldiers, and very large defensive mounds and ditches are still visible and prominent today. Geoffrey of Monmouth says Arthur was crowned at Caerleon and welcomed VIPs who arrived by boat at the Port there. Historians ridiculed Geoffrey, pointing out there was no port at Caerleon. Then a decade ago, archaeologists on a dig at Caerleon uncovered the ancient harbour walls and magnificent huge buildings near the River Usk, in other words, the port of Caerleon. Game, set and match to Geoffrey of Monmouth.

    Close but not quite. King Alfred the Great was king of Wessex from 871AD-899AD but close though. The legend of King Arthur is a story I still love to this day what I didn't know was this story dated back all the way back to the Anglo Saxon invasion of Britain or Briton as they used to be called

    Lmao… someones got a sense of humor. When arthurs brother suddenly died in 871…. Beautifully put…. Ethelwulf kicked of expectedly in 858… Ethelbald in 860, Ethelberth in 865 and then Ethelred in 871, so hardly unexpected…. But old Al, the “wise elf”…. he used gold, he did… he gave them the ring, he did… and was rewarded with a long life.

    Heres a curiosity for you.
    Sometime back when, post crusades, learned peoples of jewish, pagan and catholic faiths, were asked to nominate the most worthy of their peoples, to go down in history
    The christians chose Godfrey, king of Jerusalem … Charlemagne… and the fictitious king Arthur.
    Christians are crazy.

    It is a fact that two Arthurs lived in South Wales ,some 100 years apart,following the Roman withdrawl from the area. English historians from the middle ages have twisted the facts

    Is this channel just an intentional rage bait of historical inaccuracies?? They can't be serious I've watched a few videos and they are all incredibly misinformed
