Very cool! I’ve always loved the King Arthur legends. It’s wonderful to know it isn’t all myth.
I remember reading a long time ago that there's a belief that the whole "Sword from the Stone" thing was actually based on the discovery of how to create iron from iron ore.

Did you ever read Howard Pyle’s King Arthur books? Beautiful illustrations too. They are the only K.A. books I ever read. I think there are four altogether.
