I have to do a report and presentation on the castles around the time of King Arthur. Where can I get photos and information? The paper is due in 2 weeks. THANKS! Jessica |

Go to these previous mails for opinions on Arthur, http://www.castlesontheweb.com/quest/Forum9/HTML/000310.html http://www.castlesontheweb.com/quest/Forum9/HTML/000018.html http://www.castlesontheweb.com/quest/Forum9/HTML/000069.html Then try here; http://www.uidaho.edu/student_orgs/arthurian_legend/welcome.html You will notice from all of the links provided that Arthur was a mythical figure. If indeed a character lived upon whom the legend was based, then there would have been no 'castles', since the events occurred before the castle era. There would however have been a variety of fortified sites, such as hillforts and the like. The medieval connection and portrayal of a King Arthur is fictional. ------------------ |
