	Britannia News: Arthurian Inscription discovered at Tintagel
		Chris Morris, who has been leading the Scottish based excavation team for the past eight years, believes that the dedicatory "Arthur Stone," as it has already been christened, was placed in the wall of a 6th century stone building which later collapsed soon after it was built.
		He believes the stone's importance lies in the fact that it is "the first evidence we have that the skills of reading and writing were handed down in a non-religious context".
		Traditionally Arthur was the cousin of Cado's father, though perhaps this Arthur-Artognou was a closer relative.
