| To add to what iamihop said, the Winchester Round Table is from the 13th/14th century, and even if Arthur was a real person, he was around 700-900 years before that. (Of course, he may not have been real, and the literary figure has hardly anything to do with the real one, if he was real.) The Winchester table is "a" round table, but not "the" Round Table, as if the knights themselves actually existed and carved their own names into it. This is basically like saying the props used in The Tudors are real historical artifacts. |
