This presentation doesn’t mention the Welsh King Owain Ddantgwyn whose battle name “Arthur” means the bear', coined from Brythonic Celtic word 'Arth', and the Latin word 'Ursus' - both meaning 'bear' - thereby 'Arthursus' and later being shortened to 'Arthur'. He ruled Gwynedd and Rhôs in Wales, circa 500 AD. His fathers battle name was Uther Pen Dragon (The terrible head dragon in welsh), as in the popular Arthurian tales.

King Arthur will never die. King Arthur is an idea, a legend of the good king, and ideas never die.

This has to be one of the better documentaries on the legend of Arthur.

Arthur is a title , The Bear. Welsh war leader. He was a war leader for Uthyr Pen Dragon. The Dragon. A tough bunch of fighters. Of course, Wales was simply CRAWLING with bards. Who knew how to embellish. And spin out a tale. Bless them.

Mary Stewart's The Crystal Cave and the Hollow Hills are the best ever stories of this!

Matt Lewis strikes again! A fascinating account, and one which stops a few gaps in my own knowledge of the links between Arthurian legend and the subsequent kings.. Thanks Matt & team! 👍⭐

King Arthur and Ragnar Lothbrok are pretty much the same type of figure, they where both semi-mythological figures of which both their origins and their backstories are completely speculative on if both ever existed to begin with and both figures are most likely an amalgamation of the deeds of different lords,kings and warriors from the time period.

The story of King Arthur has inspired, and fascinated my since I was a little boy in the early 70s. The thrill of fining out any new piece to add to the puzzle and slowly make up the whole picture, never leaves me. His tale has been told many times in films, myths, and poems, some quire comical in the telling, others can almost have us believe that their version is the true story. And other just pass it all off as just a fable to tell kids in front of the fire. The biggest missing piece of the puzzle is of course that most famous of swords. How that would throw new light on the whole story.
Great video. Thank you for making it.
