James Wright @jpwarchaeology.bsky.social · 11/08/2026No. Saved everyone some reading time, there. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...bbc.co.ukCould a sword found in a castle's lake be Kent's Excalibur?The sword was poking from it after being exposed by fallen water levels. 1112015
RJ @arjayay.bsky.social · 11/08/2026Yep, looks as likely to be Excalibur as the C19th sword my grandfather kept in the bedroom in case of intruders! 010
Sean Alexander @castlerogue.bsky.social · 11/08/2026Maybe it's Clark Kent's Excalibur from his high school play. 000
Rhys Needham @rhysneedham.bsky.social · 11/08/2026So, nobody's claimed the Kingship or Queenship or Monarchship as a result of this find? 110
Dystopos @dystopos.bsky.social · 11/08/2026Maybe the question isn’t about historical facts, but about marketing potential. 100
Mahmud El Sayed @mahmudelsayed.bsky.social · 11/08/2026Listen, random volunteers finding old swords in ponds is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses... 010

Catfish @stlcatfishmike.bsky.social · 11/08/2026Be weird for Excalibur to be shaped like a near eastern weapon. 000
