Whether he really still exists ?
 
Last week i saw a guy who was carrying a round table. If i'd just asked him.
But, and that's the reason i doubt, it was at IKEA in Reykjavik.

The number of Arthurs has drastically inscreased in last 1500 years...especially in Baumax and IKEA stores.

Very interesting, I did not know Iranians' such claim of Arthur's origins.

Yes I have heard and mentioned the Sarmatian theory but the claim is interesting.

I have always thought the legend of Arthur has many older Celtic ties to it although the  name itself belongs to a later era.

Anyway it's always good and amazing for a myth to be claimed by different cultures. Like Troy as I mentioned before.

If I had a say in the issue I would give permission anybody to claim the legends for themselves. Some legends does belong to anybody who believes in what they stand for.

There is a theory that Artorius was the Dux Bellorum of Brittania, and he was trained by Ambrosius Aurerlianus the last roman commander in england, and he led the romano-british armies against the saxons, who knows? mabye he had sister named morgana and mabye there was a druid named myrddin, or mabye not, there's so much myth and legend surrounding those times that we may never know what really happened.
