Subject: Info on Glastonbury From: tallman%ailanth.uucp@wang.com (Robert Oliver) Date: 1992-09-16, 22:32 Newsgroups: alt.tv.twin-peaks Glastonbury is a small town in Somerset England. It is believed to be the site of Britain's first Christian community. Some tidbits about Glastonbury gleaned from the many tales of King Arthur: 1. Lancelot's retreat 2. Somehow associated with the Grail 3. The burial site of Arthur (Cooper?) 4. Derived from the celtic word Glastonia meaning "blue-green" 5. The highest hill in Glastonbury is the Tor, which many folk beliefs claim is hollow and is an entry to the underworld or otherworld (The Lodges?). 6. Guenevere (Annie?) was kidnapped by King Melwas (Windom Earle?) and kept in a stronhold in Glastonbury (The Lodges?), later to be rescued by Arthur (Cooper?).
