So what is the truth behind King Arthur /his/?

Did Cumalot really exist?

If anything, he would be a warlord in Post-Roman Britain. I think "Camelot" was an invention by later writers.

Here's a statue of him. I think this is from the same period when he lived.

What I wonder is, why do people tolerate all of this obvious fabrication, but when they add in a Black Lancelot everybody gets upset.

Stop trolling. Go away.

So you actually know the time period Arthur is purported to be from, but suggest that there's "truth" behind the myth.

Fuck off troll.
