King Arthur's Hall Dates Back to Neolithic Era, 4,000 Years Older Than Thought

New research has revealed that the famous King Arthur's Hall in Tintagel, Cornwall, dates back to the Neolithic era, making it 4,000 years older than previously thought.

The discovery was made by a team of archaeologists from the University of Exeter, who used a combination of radiocarbon dating and architectural analysis to determine the age of the site.

The team found that the earliest parts of the hall date back to around 3700 BC, making it one of the oldest surviving buildings in Britain.

The discovery is significant because it provides new insights into the history of Tintagel, which is closely associated with the legend of King Arthur.

According to legend, Tintagel was the birthplace of King Arthur, and the hall was where he held court.

The new research suggests that the hall was actually built long before King Arthur's time, and may have been used for a variety of purposes, including as a meeting place, a feasting hall, or a religious center.

The discovery also raises questions about the accuracy of the legend of King Arthur, and whether or not he was a real person.

However, it is clear that Tintagel was an important site in the Neolithic era, and the hall is a testament to the skill and ingenuity of the people who built it.
