Gallos 

This 8-foot-tall (2.4 m) bronze sculpture by Rubin Eynon is located at Tintagel Castle, a mediaeval fortification located on the peninsula of Tintagel Island adjacent to the village of Tintagel (Trevena), North Cornwall. 

It’s a representation of a ghostly male figure wearing a crown and holding a sword. While it’s popularly known as the "King Arthur statue", the site's owner English Heritage, has stated that it isn’t meant to represent a single person, but instead reflects the general history of the site, which is likely to have been a summer residence for the kings of Dumnonia between the late 4th and late 8th centuries (ie between the end of Roman rule in Britain and the Anglo-Saxon period).

There are many castles in Britain that are better preserved, more historically significant, or more beautiful than Tintagel Castle on the rugged Cornish coast. That being said, Tintagel remains one of Britain’s most-visited castles — because it holds a pivotal role in the romantic legend of the great King Arthur.

“Yet some men say in many parts of England that King Arthur is not dead, but had by the will of our Lord into another place; and men say that he shall come again ― Thomas Malory, Le Morte d'Arthur

Cornwall isn’t just one of the most beautiful parts of England. It’s a place steeped in myth and legend, thought to have once been home to King Arthur himself.

Never mention Arthurian Legends to Roman.

He has views and he has rants and sometimes it seems that depending on the day he'll be set on what the actual story of King Arthur is.

The only thing he's actually sure about is that the BBC show 'Merlin' does not match Arthurian Legend no matter how good the story is, or how they attempted to bring it in with the bigger plots.

This is brought to you thanks to last weeks visit to King Arthurs Great Halls, like, just look at this stained glass? and the audiobooks I got for £0.50 each

#roman sanders #arthurian legends #can you go to Tintagel with minimum influence of arthurian legend? #Yes the english heritage barely mentions it in the castle #should you? #fuck no #go up the road to King Arthur's Great Halls and just bask in it #and in the gorgeous stained glass #King Arthurs Great Halls #Tintagel

Its setting is utterly dramatic on the colossal Atlantic coastline where rocky cliffs tower above the relentless ocean, the ruins split in half where erosion has broken through the rocks to turn a former headland into an…
