Archaeologists Discover , Final Resting Place of Up to 65 , Arthurian Era British Kings.<br />'The Independent' reports that archaeologists have <br />uncovered what they believe to be the long-lost tombs <br />of as many as 65 British Kings and other senior royals. .<br />The graves reportedly date back to the time associated with the legendary King Arthur. .<br />Archaeologists and historians believe <br />the find could shed light on the poorly-understood <br />political landscape of post-Roman Britain. .<br />Previously, only one indigenous British monarch's <br />final resting place was positively known. .<br />Now, at least 20 likely burial complexes <br />have been tentatively identified. .<br />Each complex reportedly <br />contains up to five graves. .<br />Another eleven potential royal burial <br />sites remain under consideration. .<br />The burial complexes were discovered <br />in Wales, Cornwall, Devon and Somerset. .<br />While the discovery may not yield any solid evidence of King Arthur himself, it is likely to illuminate the so-called Arthurian age. .<br />Before this work, we were completely <br />unaware of the large number of probable <br />royal graves surviving from post-Roman <br />western Britain. Ongoing investigations <br />are likely to help change our understanding <br />of important aspects of this <br />crucial period of British history, Professor Ken Dark of the University of Reading and Spain’s University of Navarra, via 'The Independent'.<br />Before this work, we were completely <br />unaware of the large number of probable <br />royal graves surviving from post-Roman <br />western Britain.
