Arthurian legends websites

[Laura LaBelle <laura.labelle@ATT.NET>]

Hello from a first-time poster.  I originally sent this
directly to the first requester.  Since there's another
request, here it is for the group:

I am a college and public reference librarian
& am getting certified to switch to school library media
specialist here in CT. I did a project last semester on
non-print sources on the Middle Ages.  I researched many
good websites. Here are some which pertain specifically
to Arthurian legends:

Britannia
http://britannia.com/history
Page down to "King Arthur" section.  Lots of related
content on this huge site, like a virtual "walk" through
historic buildings.

Sir Clisto Seversword's Tome of Adventure and Knowlege
http://www.execpc.com/~clisto/clisto.html
A humongeous site created by a dedicated
medieval/Renaissance re-enactor. Lots of fun, with phony
Medieval style of speech the kids will love. There are
lots of sections (50+), so it's easy to get
sidetracked.  Some are a bit bawdy, but nothing obscene.
The section called "King Arthur/Robin Hood/Merlin"
looked good, also Knighthood, Chivalry, Holy Grail, etc.

BBC Online History
http://www.bbc.co.uk/education/history
Might not have enough on Arthur, content is solid but
limited.

Regia Anglorum - Anglo-Saxon, Viking, Norman, and
British Living History
http://www.regia.org
Stunning visuals by a group of "professional amateurs"
in Britain - includes virtual tours of life in a manor
and a village.  The time period focuses in 1000 AD,
which is later than King Arthur, but it gives a great
look at daily life. The link was down tonight - try
later.

Early British Kingdoms

20Kingdoms.html
You may have to type this in manually, but it's worth
it. Scroll down to "Historical King Arthur" for sections
on A. as king, warrior, etc.

Middle Ages: The Annenberg/CPB Projects Exhibits
Collection
http://www.learner.org/exhibits/middleages
Again, this one focuses on daily life.  It's
interactive, with little quizzes and sound/music bites.
Check out the "related resources" link for more sources.

Hope this helps - I would love it if you could let me
know if any of these fit your need.  My project was only
a mock project, as I didn't get a chance to collaborate
with any teachers.  I'd like to know if the sites really
fit into an actual lesson plan.

TIA & regards - Laura LaBelle
