Description: Tony Smith image Flickr 4739608023 - 'King Arthur Pendragon
Titula head &
chosen chief of the royal arthurian warband, Battle chieftain of CobDO.
Details here from the warband website. Arthur Pendragon, Druid Priest and Swordbearer, was brought up in Aldershot He served with the Royal Hampshire Regiment, receiving Exemplary Conduct upon discharge. He is qualified for Mensa, and is a well known public speaker at many of our Universities.
He was employed as a political columnist for The Esher News and Mail and has written for the Western Daily Press and co-authored a book about his exploits and that of his Order in challenging Her Majesty's Government and the authorities over Stonehenge and many other environmental issues.
He left school at fifteen and has had a varied career, including working as General Foreman for a Parish Council and Senior Supervisor for Hampshire and Surrey County Councils on the Basingstoke Canal restoration project, and at one time was he was a General Forman for a major management contractor, running a \u00a36 million and a \u00a39 million contracts.
Well known in Salisbury as an environmental campaigner and political activist, who is not afraid to put himself in the front line, he was arrested along with a Labour MP and a Member of the Scottish Parliament as well as Catholic Priests, Church of Scotland Ministers and members of the Scottish Nationalist Party, campaigning for nuclear disarmament. He was also arrested on another occasion showing solidarity with the workers on the March for Social Justice.
I met him across from Stonehenge where he was collecting signatures to repatriate druid remains removed from the site. They may have been the founders of the site and should be returned.
Stonehenge is a prehistoric monument located in the English county of Wiltshire, about 2 miles west of Amesbury and 8 miles north of Salisbury. One of the most famous sites in the world, Stonehenge is composed of earthworks surrounding a circular setting of large standing stones. It is at the centre of the most dense complex of Neolithic and Bronze Age monuments in England, including several hundred burial mounds.
Archaeologists had believed that the iconic stone monument was erected around 2500 BC, as described in the chronology below. One recent theory, however, has suggested that the first stones were not erected until 2400-2200 BC, whilst another suggests that bluestones may have been erected at the site as early as 3000 BC (see phase 1 below). The surrounding circular earth bank and ditch, which constitute the earliest phase of the monument, have been dated to about 3100 BC. The site and its surroundings were added to the UNESCO's list of World Heritage Sites in 1986 in a co-listing with Avebury Henge monument. It is a national legally protected Scheduled Ancient Monument. Stonehenge is owned by the Crown and managed by English Heritage, while the surrounding land is owned by the National Trust.
Archaeological evidence found by the Stonehenge Riverside Project in 2008 indicates that Stonehenge served as a burial ground from its earliest beginnings. The dating of cremated remains found on the site indicate burials from as early as 3000 BC, when the initial ditch and bank were first dug. Burials continued at Stonehenge for at least another 500 years
In the 12th century, Geoffrey of Monmouth included a fanciful story in his work Historia Regum Britanniae that attributed the monument's construction to Merlin. Geoffrey's story spread widely, appearing in more and less elaborate form in adaptations of his work such as Wace's Norman French Roman de Brut, Layamon's Middle English Brut, and the Welsh Brut y Brenhinedd. According to Geoffrey, Merlin directed its removal from Ireland, where it had been constructed on Mount Killaraus by Giants, who brought the stones from Africa. After it had been rebuilt near Amesbury, Geoffrey further narrates how first Ambrosius Aurelianus, then Uther Pendragon, and finally Constantine III, were buried inside the ring of stones. In many places in his Historia Regum Britanniae Geoffrey mixes British legend and his own imagination
it is intriguing that he connects Ambrosius Aurelianus with this prehistoric monument as there is place-name evidence to connect Ambrosius with nearby Amesbury.
According to Geoffrey of Monmouth, the rocks of Stonehenge were healing rocks, called the Giant's dance, which giants brought from Africa to Ireland for their healing properties. Aurelius Ambrosias (5th century), wishing to erect a memorial to the 3,000 nobles, who had died in battle with the Saxons and were buried at Salisbury, chose Stonehenge (at Merlin's advice) to be their monument. So the King sent Merlin, Uther Pendragon (Arthur's father), and 15,000 knights to Ireland to retrieve the rocks. They slew 7,000 Irish but, as the knights tried to move the rocks with ropes and force, they failed. Then Merlin, using 'gear' and skill, easily dismantled the stones and sent them over to Britain, where Stonehenge was dedicated. Shortly after, Aurelius died and was buried within the Stonehenge monument, or 'The Giants' Ring of Stonehenge'.
In another legend of Saxons and Britons, in 472 the invading king Hengist invited Brythonic warriors to a feast, but treacherously ordered his men to draw their weapons from concealment and fall upon the guests, killing 420 of them. Hengist erected the stone monument\u2014Stonehenge\u2014on the site to show his remorse for the deed.
So it is a site brimming with history and legend. One that King Arthur Pendragon is hoping to preserve for the future. I added my donation and headed north.
