The Persian Version

The North-Iranian origins of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table; my conversation with Dr. Linda Malcor about her book 'From Scythia to Camelot'

53 min • 5 februari 2022

I'm delighted and honoured to bring you my first podcast discussion with Dr Linda Malcor, co-author of

'From Scythia to Camelot'

This revolutionary book meticulously demonstrates that the core of the European stories of 'King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table', Camelot and the Holy Grail is not entirely  Gaelic, Celtic, or Ango-Saxon but North-Iranian!

The scholarly yet revolutionary book argues that many of these stories were brought to Western Europe by ethnolinguistically and culturally  Iranian (i.e. Aryan), semi-nomadic chain mail armoured, equestrian peoples, such as the Sarmatians, Alans, Roxalans, Iaziges, Aorsi and others who migrated westward from their home on the Eurasian Steppes north of the Black Sea and settled much of Western Europe, including Britain during the decline and fall of the Western Roman Empire.
