<!-- ABOUT US -->
<div>
<h2><span>A</span>bout Us </h2>
<p>This site is dedicated to investigate and expose curious coincidences found during years of
investigation, between academically recognised
historical facts, and myths from the Matter of Britain, and more specifically the Arthurian
cycle.
</p>
<p>All facts exposed are throughtly referenced, and documented from unvaluable digitalized
manuscripts
from the National Library of the United Kingdom (British Library), and other valuable and
reliable
resources, such as Cambridge University research papers, or the Encyclopaedia Britannica,
amongst
others.
</p>
</div>
<!-- KEEPING IT REAL -->
<div>
<h2><span>K</span>eeping it Real </h2>
<p>Although it is frequently stated by historians that there is often a part of hidden history
behing
every myth or legend, this site does not seek to present any curious coincidences found as the
ultimate historical truth behind the myth.
