When you have 2000+ years of history something called a "culture" develops along with myths and legends. Over time they become widespread.

It's a national past-time over there. They'll be unearthing "King Arthur's" sword soon.

King John - of Robin Hood fame - "discovered" King Arthur's Round Table buried in the courtyard of a monastery.

The table top still exists, a testament to political PR marketing.
