Cambusmaelok, shortened to Cameluk (that's what Edward 1st called it), corrupted to Camelot means monestry of Saint Maelok. He was a 6th century Saint and prince of Strathclyde and fleed "Scotland" to Lugo in North West Spain, he attended the second council of Braga 572ade. His daughter was taught by Saint Bride. Before Saint Maelok this location was the place of the chapels called after Aaron and Julius / Julian the roman. It is also the birthplace of Saint Patrick.

@@teslar1 The ninth did not get defeated the Romans had no problem with an honorable defeat, the ninth disobeyed orders and disbanded into the local population.
Regarding the Roman swords. Surely, if they were fleeing the local 'rebels', the first thing they would have taken were the swords, their main means of defence, especially if they had wives and children with them.
The ancient Church was an experiential learning tool for people who couldn't read. The ceremonies taught about Christ in traditions, processions, rituals etc. so it makes sense that they would recreate Jerusalem, allowing a location people could learn from.
Bonjour. There were Pictes in Gaule too, around Poitiers, to the coast and southern Loire Valley. As they were allied during the conquest, they got their territory expended up to Nantes.

Interesting that Scots were participating in the siege of Newark against their Stuart king... I also know that Oliver Cromwell's army were in Inverness! They built a citadel as it was called there, down by the harbour, at around 1650. and 40 years later, that citadel was no more! Totally demolished, with only a very handsome clocktower left standing, which local historians believe was there before the citadel.
DON'T believe ANYTHING from this woman. BRITAIN is the LARGEST ISLAND in the WHOLE OF EUROPE! IONA was an IRISH monastic foundation. SHE deliberately fails to mention that COLM CILLE( his real Irish name) and his monks were from IRELAND. COLUM CILLE and his missionares were the product of IRISH culture. Colum Cille was even from one of the ruling IRISH families.
Except they were called Scoti. TBH you can see Ireland very clearly from Kintyre and Isley. I think there was always political and cultural entities across the North Channel. If you have a boat the sea becomes your highway. St Patrick himself was a Briton. These two regions have always been connected, from the Scoti to the Ulster plantations
@@davidbarrass The fact is she deliberately omits to mention that Colm CILLE and his fellow missionaries were from Ireland. People with no knowledge of the Irish monastic Foundations would likely be amazed that the Irish Monks went to many countries spreading a love of art and learning. Lindisfarne, Bobbie, ST. Gall were among many others founded by the Irish missionaries.

He...was from the Ui Neil, my grandad's tribe in Donegal. He was born, apparently, on our clan's land...for our clan were the leading sept of Ui Neil in Tir Chonail during the Sain't s time.
It was Saint Patrick who taught Saint columba and Patrick was from Strathclyde. Columba converted the Scots who were a small insignificant tribe from Ireland and North/ west Scotland, he did not convert Scotland as it did not exist for another 700 years. Strathclyde had a Christian presence since 350ade.
St Patrick was long dead before St Columba was born, so P definitely was not C's teacher. And nobody knows exactly where Patrick was born anyway. What is known is that P was Romano-British. Strathclyde is a name that emerged centuries later. The Scoti were not a tribe. It was a collective name that the Romans gave to raiders from the east of Ireland. They raided from what is now southwest Scotland down to the Midlands of England. The Scoti were never in the North of Scotland. Those were the Picts. And the name "Scotland" was invented by English monks, not by the people actually living in Alba. The Gaelic Kindom of Dál Riata, to which Columba sailed in 563 AD, existed from around the 4th century to the late 8th century. What is now called Scotland started out as the Kingdom of Alba in 843 AD.
@@alicemilne1444 The current chronology is way off with saint Patrick. Saint Patrick was taught be saint Serf in Strathclyde which had a christian presence since 350ade. Saint Serf 500-585ade.

Took me a hot second to figure out why archaeologists were so fascinated by omelettes. I was listening and not watching.

The very first 'factory', ever found was a glass making one, in Romania I think, 8000yrs old, so yer Romans wern't the only people making glass.
Wow! I had no idea that glass making technology was that old. It even predates metallurgy.
Looks like a plague of pseudohistory has broken out here in the comments, all posted by individuals with suspiciously similar tags.
I love watching these shows with Alice. Keep remembering her with pink hair hanging off a cliff digging a site where the erosion was taking it's toll.
Maybe the Picts were trading for Roman goods thru a kind of " Black Market " operation ?
