Tintagel: Archaeology Meets the Arthurian Legend

from The Proper British History Podcast: Kings, Queens, Wars, Empire, Politics, Revolutions, Royalty and the Historical Great Britain · host Podily

In this episode we dig through the layers of Tintagel—from an elite post‑Roman settlement to a medieval manor—to see how archaeology informs—and challenges—the King Arthur story. We explore why Victorian excavations, tourist marketing and modern interpretations have kept the cliffside legend alive even as the material record points elsewhere. Learn more about your ad choices.
