The Knights of Camelot
Description
King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table inspired legends, best sellers, and movies. Romantic and magical, the tales of Merlin the magician and the inhabitants of Camelot continue to fascinate after centuries. But could such a wondrous place as Camelot have once existed in reality? Was King Arthur merely a legend, or in fact a real historical figure? This episode of Ancient Mysteries interviews prominent British archaeologists and historians to discover the truth.
