A LATE INSCRIPTION FROM WROXETER By R. P. Wright and K. H. Jackson


I'm here making available as jpeg image pages the complete article on the Cunorix Stone.  The link for the article may be found here:


In my opinion, this stone is not only one of the most important extant examples in all of Britain, but holds the key to our knowledge concerning a historical Arthur.  I have identified this Cunorix with Cynric of the ANGLO-SAXON CHRONICLE, and Maqui-coline with that source's Ceawlin.  Ceawlin/-coline himself is otherwise known as Cunedda, and my candidate for Arthur is Ceredig son of Cunedda, i.e. Cerdic of the Gewissei.  My full argument for these claims is set out in my book THE BEAR KING: ARTHUR AND THE IRISH IN WALES AND SOUTHERN ENGLAND.
