Yeah, it is simple as that.

Every single human being is/was a Turk; Sumerians, Trojans, American natives, people of Finland... King Arthur was no exception.

Any reasonable person must know King Arthur was a Turk...

But it was the greeks who invented the round table...

The legendary king Arthur is a legend. That's why he is called legendary.

True.
 
But he is a legendary Cornishman.
 
By birth anyway.

gcle2003,

That is a common misconception. He was not Cornish. But his favorite food was Corn! This fact has been lost to history because of a kind of Chinese Whispers Effect through the Ages.

You mean corn doesn't come from Cornwall? How can that be?
 
(If there's a cornier joke than that I'd like to meet it. Or perhaps not.)

I don't think corn comes from Corwall, it's just they use it in lengthy maisonary projects.

Actually King Arthur is probably Welsh. the whole Samaritan thing is nonsense, or  rather true but only to degrees (as in there were Samaritans in Britian but its extremely unlikely Arthur was one- he probably lived quite a while after the Romans left with all their troops). Historically the best we can find for King Arthur is a Welsh warlord leading a variety of British tribes against the Saxons.
 
Oh and the movie "King Arthur" is not to be trusted historically. Its non stop BS.
 
Of course being Cornish I'll ignore all I wrote and say he comes from Tintagel in Cornwall!Smile

I guess that was a good time to get mugged and left by the side of the road. Smile
 
However I suppose there were Bad Samaritans as well as Good.

Seriously, Geoffrey Ashe made a good case for Arthur bing based on the historical King Rhiotamus, who, inter alia, was the only British king to lead an army on to the Continent - though, unlike the mythical Arthur, he fought with the Romans against the Franks.
 
He sees 'Rhiotamus' as being the Romanised 'Rigotamos', which just means 'Supreme King', and is in Ashe's view really only a title affixed to 'Artorius' (much as Temujin gets called Genghis Khan, and Octavian gets called Augustus).
 
The book is "The Discovery of King Arthur", but I haven't read it in a while.
