Carmarthen Bar and its shipwrecks Carmarthenshire Place-name Survey Home Fforest yr Esgob ( the Bishop's Forest) Deserted Rural Settlements are being studied by numerous archaeologists in Wales. In the last decade or so it has become apparent that the Welsh uplands contain a wealth of evidence in the form of simple habitations, many of which survive only as low stony earthworks. The siting is often in narrow valleys close to streams. Their simple form has lead some archaeologists to suggest that they are medieval in date - perhaps originating during the period of massive population increase in the 13th century. However it is certain that these uplands were again heavily settled during the first half of the 19th century, as a result of pressures to grow more crops during the Napoleonic Wars and then as a result of the Enclosure Movement.

Extractions: Cwrt Sart Community Comprehensive is a school located in Briton Ferry, Neath Wales . It is one of the schools in Neath Port Talbot. The Carreg Hir ('long stone') is 9 ft 2 in (2.8 m) high, 5 ft 7 in (1.7 m) wide and about 2 ft (0.6 m) thick. The stone was re-erected into a concrete plinth in modern times, though it is believed to be in its original location. Archaeologists think that it may once have stood upon a mound, overlooking the River Neath. There is a published 1848 reference to this stone in which it says that "there is a charm, not yet discovered, which can compel [the stone] to speak, and for once to reveal the secret of its history: but that having once spoken it will be silent forever." Another legend says that there is an underground passage leading between the stone and Neath Abbey some 1.3 miles (2.1 km) to the North; the stone is said to be aligned upon it. This is complete bullshit, ignore it; it's a rock, it doesn't walk, speak or dance.

Extractions: The great strength of the Royal Commission, making it different from other organisations or institutions curating archives, is that the Commission maintains an active field survey branch. This enables the Commission to fill discernible gaps in the national archive of monuments and buildings – the National Monuments Record of Wales . The Commission can respond to identified threats to particular archaeological areas or buildings and to requests for recording action whenever possible. The Royal Commission is in a unique position to provide a national overview of Welsh archaeology and historic architecture. Its field survey and photography programmes produce interpretative results available to the public as printed publications and on the Royal Commission website, complementing the information available from the on-line database, Coflein . Branch staff use the most suitable survey and interpretative aids available. Specialisms include aerial photography satellite-guided ground survey (GPS) and tree-ring dating (dendrochronology) Current projects include: the Nonconformist Chapels of Wales, the

Extractions: Excalibur, by Sanders Anne Laubenthal. Ballantine Books, 1973. So why is she messing about in modern-day Mobile, Alabama? Well, the premise of Excalibur is that the sword Excalibur didn't disappear with Arthur, but was passed down through his successors; until in 1170 a Welsh prince named Madoc took it with him to America when founding a colony. The colony, however, eventually failed, and Excalibur was lost. Eight hundred years later, a young Welsh archaeology student named Rhodri Meyrick comes to Mobile, Alabama, hoping to excavate a cellar wall that might be from the twelfth century. Linette Silverthorne, the niece of the woman who owns the building, joins him as an assistant. But Rhodri isn't just the archaeology student Linette thinks he is. He's also the PendragonArthur's heirand he's come to Mobile looking for Excalibur. Unfortunately some other people are looking for Excalibur as well: the ancient sorceress Morgan, who wants to use it in the service of a Celtic goddess, and her sister Morgause, who wants to use it against the Grail. And both of them are willing to do anything to stop Rhodri and Linette from finding Excalibur. Rhodri and Linette are not the only people on a quest. Anthony, an old friend of Linette, is also looking for something: the Holy Grail. His quest is, in a way, more urgentand more dangerousthan theirs. For Morgause intends to wreak destruction on the Grail and anything that stands in her way: "I will destroy it and you and all this place as far as the fire reachesfive leagues' poisoning of the earth, pool of death spreading outward!"

Joshua 1:3 What do the names: Joshua , Jesus , Hesus , Hu Gadarn , Hu the Mighty, Yeshua, have in common? They are all the names given to the same biblical Joshua who took the Israelites into the Promised Land. The eradicating of the knowledge of Joshua and the Israelite colonization of the British Isles has led to the longest enduring Holocaust, throughout Europe, which has not been properly recorded in history. More Israelite blood has been shed over the identity issue than Jewish blood shed during the Second World War. The knowledge of who the druids were is a major key to solving a historic puzzle. The Druidic priesthood was established in Ireland and Britain, by Joshua of the Old Testament. Historical Record Hu Gadarn, the Joshua of the Old Testament, came to Britain in the early to mid 1300's B.C. "A fragmentary Welsh record, called the Welsh Triad, reads as follows: 'First was the race of the Cymry, who came with Hu Gadarn to Yns Prydain.' Hu came from the 'land of summer' a land located somewhere in what later constituted the realm of Constantinople (the capital of the eastern Roman Empire). ... Who was Hu Gadarn? Gadarn is a Welsh word. It means 'the mighty.' Hu was a short form of the Old Celtic name Hesus... . Hesus is the Celtic and also the Spanish pronunciation of Jesus. ...
