The Legends Of King Arthur - King Arthur - Documentary 

I love these older, well researched, documentaries with actual experts (rather than bloviating fools spouting nonsense they never even bothered to look-up). Lovely.

Absolutely love your content man. I hope your passion never disappears. Keep it up

I wish he would come back in spirit. We sure need him now, rex quandam ex rex futuris.

Brilliant documentary absolutely love anything and everything about king Arthur and his times

Interesting story. This year (as most of us) I've spent watching a TON of documentaries. Not since elementary school have I done this much Arthurian research ;) The story is what loosely inspired the series we're fans of - Jewel Riders.

I don’t care what other people might say I believe in King Arthur just like some people believe in god or Jesus

Considering the state of the current monarchy and age, humanity NEEDS Arthur's leadership now more than ever before

Well what a GREAT show!

Arthur Pendragon, William Shakespeare, we love to remember the great men over and over again..

Arthur was a young king

I think I partially remember the sword in the stone and last battle stories about King Arthur. until last evening I only knew the names of his wife and Queen and one of their Knights, I didn't know that they secret lovers

According to Geoffrey of Monmouth, Mordred was just on the field dying and Morgana was the chief of the 9 ladies who took Arthur to the Aisle of Avalon to be healed.

By sheer Tintagel, fair with days Made famous by the songs that harpers sing - Where Merlin, standing in the breakers' sprays, First proclaimed that Arthur would be King Under loudly foaming rocks, wild With the wrath of the Cornish coast At high tide, as the royal child Was brought ashore to his foster host; And from where, with his time full-wrought, He was put to sea again, to drift West on waves, kitted as he fought, With every kind of jewelled golden gift; And where The Swallow's bows broke the shoreward Spray, bearing Tristan and the bride He, but not King Marc, by the untoward Brew would woo and win - the ebbing tide Reveals a sandy beach by a cave, At the head of the sheltered cove, A beach that all the world's oceans lave And where legendary heroes throve. For a moment out of ocean's reach, Until the rolling tide'd come in again, I stood alone on that gravelled beach, Where Uther landed seeking fair Ygraine, By the stone-cut stairway thick with green Of the sea, the slippery road towards The sun-lit headland often sought, and seen, From afar by sailors, their just rewards; Except for Tristan and Iseult, for whom That coast, those headlands, would not give respite; To them, disembarking spelled their doom; For them, landing just began the fight. Reaching for the Westering Sea, the arms Of the cove takes in a portion of the vast Oceans of the world, against the harms Of those raging waves holding fast. That beach is the bottom of the seas; But the turning moon for half the year Withdraws the waters and thus to us reveals Some of the secrets hidden there. The deeper sea is out of sight for me; From this place those depths cannot be plumbed. Whatever unknown creatures there may be, Whatever messages may be drummed, In the deep places of the earth, I will see and hear those washed ashore, Those that this small beach allows to berth. The beach glitters with many stones, more Than I can count, rolled by the swelling Waves for long, dim, unknown ages, Waves that bring, uncalled, to our dwelling Rumours from afar, unguessed by sages, Rumours that still echo in the cave, Opened up only by the waters That go out with the tidal wave, Back to dark winding quarters Of uncharted oceans of perception. In the cave the waters leave their traces, Some of haunting truths, some of deception, Brought out of the deeper places. I enter into that room, myself a piece Of saline water, an animal Like any other - under our fleece, Rational and irrational. Riddles for all kinds and degrees; Some I take up to make mine. The main comes in from wide and deeper seas Over the beach, and the cave fills up with brine. The rising tide enfathoms what the sun Revealed and made clearer in the light; The beach and cave are again made one With the great waters' soothing night.

Super exposition of Arthur

The commercial adverts for betting and gambling apps on recent videos I've watched show that betting is fast becoming a failed business model . Sophisticated algorithms tell their own historic story .it's a sign that there are less fools being born every day ... There was a time in the past when it didn't rain and there will be a time in the near future where the praying on the pockets of the vulnerable will peacefully cease to succeed . Thanks RU-vid . Oh and thanks for this upload

2 years later: there’s now loads of proof he did exist, just not as how we know him as

Clearly, King Arthur's real identity is Artoria Pendragon.

not bad

Interesting. In the east I have also heard a story about a sword. And also about the Universal Monarch idea which they see as true, not fiction. Where higher beings would come in a ufo and hover over the house of a person, so everyone in the area would know who the rightful king or queen/ monarch is. Then they would do a 'coronation', I think like a mystical event or intiation on the person's crown chakra.

So this is probably how BBC's Merlin show was made. With aspects of myth and history mixed together to form the legendary King Arthur Pendragon. Quite the Mythstory eh? In my own fantasy books I am writing, I am going for that same idea, with a mix of myth and history combined to make my own version of Arthur.

King Arthur is so similar to King Harold the Great.

37:12 - "Scawe maiw"🙂

We have our own arthur fantasy playing out now we have a curren Guinevere and arthur we also have a mordred and morgana although the latter 2 now live in foreign parts lets hope they stay there

Archeology shows there was no such Dark Age. Britain survived long after the Romans and thrived by way of International Trade. Even with the Plague of 540 (ish) and then the Comet (Asteroid) of 562 which burned out a large swath of Britain, it recovered and thrived.

Wow

Here's what I got. My ancestors Loot Jackson, was arrested by a giant man named Tristan. He was kicked out Saint Michels for having a Trist with a noble girl named Quinn.. Loot was arrested for killing a rabbit. Sentenced to 20 years silence of service. In freaking 1100 AD.. ?? . The name "Camelot" and "Lancelot" are to close. Could each knight be named Lot? . Update: 04/24/2024 The king Arthur story was written to claim Britain has the stone of destiny. A "Merlin" is a missing stone from a wall to give you a window. The sword was probably first pulled out the destiny stone. Just think it out.. . King Arthur and his brother have 2 completely different names? Hmmm.

Maybe Arthur is a standard - a level of chivalry for men to aspire to, and not a flesh and blood person.

The power is drawn to the right hand. The weapon of two blades sank. A legend to encourage evolution.

l'm just here because of Wakeman! Without the music, l could care less! xD My KING comes from the 1st century, and He's real, and alive!

According to the early legends and traditions of Britain, the oldest of Christian denominations, Grail Christianity, also associated with Celtic, Druidic, Old Catholic, Welsh and other early Christian denominations, was first started by Christ himself during a visit to Glastonbury in the west of England with his great uncle Joseph of Arimathea. Joseph of Arimathea, who was also known as the "tin man" in Britiain, became the guardian of the Christ child during the missing years between his 13th birthday and his ministry in the Holy Land. As Joseph of Arimathea was a rich trader who sailed much of the known world in Phoenician ships, he was accompanied by Jesus when he traveled to Glastonbury near the Mendip Hills, whose mines produced much, if not most, of the world's then supply of lead and tin. Over one winter fierce storms forced the two to stay at Glastonbury for an extended period and they established what became known as the Wattle Church converting many of the area Druids to the very first Christianity. After the passion Joseph of Arimathea returned to Glastonbury with the Holy Grail, planted the Holy Thorn and reestablished the Wattle Church on the 12 hides of Glastonbury, a royal land grant. Upon Joseph of Arimathea's death and subsequent burial at Glastonbury, the Holy Grail was lost and it became the quest of the knights of a later king, King Arthur, to relocate it and solve its mysteries. The true identity and nature of Arthur, his knights and the quest are discussed in detail. The Grail Church was eventually consumed by the much more aggressive Roman Catholic church although small and often competing revivals of the denomination are still underway. Grail Christianity has also been associated with the concept of Christian reincarnation, as well as a rejection of the concept of original sin. www.amazon.com/Grail-Christianity-R-Roy-Blake-ebook/dp/B01M0MKHJ5/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=on+grail+christianity&qid=1633661460&sr=8-1

Some heresies about Arthurian Legend for you. a. There is no mention of the Arthur story before Monmouth and Oxford in 1135. Gildas, Bede and others do not mention King Arthur, let alone the rest of the legend. b. The great hero of Arthurian Legend is Joseph(us) of Arimathaea, who is said to have been a knight working for Commander (Emperor) Vespasian. c. Several of the manuscripts (especially in the Vulgate Cycle), say that Arthurian Legend was written by Josephus Flavius in the 1st century. Troubling, eh? The answer to all this can be seen in that Arthurian Legend only appears with Monmouth and Oxford, after Crusaders and Templars arrived back in Europe from the Crusades. And note that the First Crusade went to Antioch-Edessa, Beyond the Euphrates, before it went to Jerusalem. What is the connection here? The Answer is that the Crusaders knew there were gospel secrets in Edessa, that had remained hidden behind the velvet veil of the Council of Chalcedon and the iron curtain of lslam, ever since the 5th and 8th centuries. That is why Eschenbach’s Parsival starts its Arthur story in Mesopotamia under King Barus (King Agbarus, the 1st century of Edessa). That is why High History says that Perceval was the nephew of the gospels’ Nicodemus. That is why Perceval’s father owned the donkey that had belonged to the gospel Nicodemus. All very troubling, eh? The answer is that Arthurian Legend is actually a secular gospel, about the historical Jesus as a real, secular, 1st century king of Edessa. But it was dressed up as a 5th or 6th century story of Britain, to evade Church censors (and Church funerary pyres). In reality the Galles (the Welsh) refers to the Eunuch Galli priests of Galilee and Syria. Which is why Jesus asked for his disciples to become eunuchs in Math 19:12. That is why Simon was called Peter-Kephas, the stone, because the Holy Grail of Arthurian legend was a sacred stone - the sacred omphalos-elagabal stone of the Galli priests of Syria. The stone that Scottish Templars claim they still possess x the Stone if Scone. There is much more to this story than meets the eye. See the book ‘The Grail Cypher’ Why no King Jesus in the line-up of the nine famous king-knights? …well he is there - he is called King Arthur. Ralph Ellis

Good stuff, apart from that knobhead who thinks he's Arthur.

🧐🥰💘🌹

17:31 like the Bible lol

It is interesting that this Arthur is the only king of England named Arthur. I think that some of the royals had or have Arthur within their numerous names, but no subsequent king has used the name Arthur for his reigning name.

I’m King Arthur…

If they only could take the marbles out we could understand. Them

That one author looked like merlin.

can they all just speak up

I still reckon King Arthur is Irish.

Arthur lived even had a son Arthur the second .

a knights nativity play, thats all. panto, Who was punch and judy?

Arthur is neither a fictional nor a historical figure. He is pure propaganda, The British Monarchy distilled. I can prove it. Arthur and Agamemnon have the exact same role in primary sources. In fact Arthur has way more illegitimate children and is more explicitly portrayed as forcing himself on women. Yet look at how differently they are portrayed in modern works, how much more often Arthur is centered & the obsession with a nonexistent historical Arthur. Where are all the portrayals of Agamemnon's rise to fame from unlucky beginnings, his glorified divine right, him killing Hector winning Troy and having a forbidden love affair with the sweet maiden Clytemnestra despite being coveted by every woman and totally NOT A CUCK!!, then living HEA in his everlasting kingdom while Achilles gets killed off in the background somewhere? Where is everyone debating his historicity? Where have all of the Zeus Agamemnon worshippers gone and why are there a bunch of people comparing Arthur and not Galahad to Jesus? Instead Agamemnon is portrayed as a background villain because to modern eyes his actions seems horrific, even though he was a very good king, for what a king was supposed to be. Same for Arthur, he's willing to kill babies and pimp out/burn his wife to stay in charge and that was everything that was expected... But so many writers want to glorify this institution and British colonisation, while no one cares about Sparta because it doesn't exist anymore and Greece was never a great imperialistic power, even if it is where ostensibly democratic "Western society" originated who knows or cares... You can't tell me neutering all the drama and making your main character Perfect makes for a "better story" either so don't pull that one

The assertion at 20.04 that the Saxons were heavily defeated in 416 is wrong. Badon took place in the closing years of the 5thC not the early years.

Arthur is not mentioned by Gildas or Bede, and Arthur’s story is not narrated by Nennius, Malmsbury (1st chronicle), and Huntingdon, and was mocked by Newburgh. Arthur’s story only arrived in 1135, when Crusaders and Templars arrived back from the First Crusade, and this story was narrated by Monmouth and Oxford. So who was King Arthur? The clue is that the Round Table was modelled on the Last Supper table (see book: Merlin Grail). So King Arthur and his twelve knights of the round table, are synonymous with King Jesus and his twelve disciples of the round last supper table. And the table itself was modelled upon the Jewish zodiac at Hamat Teverya on the Sea of Galilee, and its twelve constellations. In addition, many of the early manuscripts say that Arthurian legend was written by Josephus Flavius - which has caused a great deal of head-scratching. So what is the answer to all this? In reality, the Crusaders brought home the secular history of Jesus. But since this story was highly heretical, they formulated this story into Arthurian legend. The uncomfortable truth is that King Arthur was King Jesus. See book ‘The Grail Cypher’. www.amazon.co.uk/Grail-Cypher-secrets-Arthurian-revealed-ebook/dp/B0152BGX7A Ralph

Doesn’t the story of King Arthur coincide with the story of Christ ...? Keep thinking 🤔...” the once & future king”...
