I assume this was a grift — they “found” some bodies and declared them Arthur and Guinevere, and suddenly the site became a pilgrimage destination and lots of money started flowing in from the pilgrims.
In a thousand years (if we last that long) they’ll have similar signs in Jerusalem and Rome.
I don’t get it.
Arthur probably didn’t exist. Guinevere certainly didn’t. Even if they did, there’s no reason to assume any particular location would be the location of their tombs.
Plus, according to the legend, Arthur’s supposed to be alive and in the mystical island of Avalon, waiting until he is needed to return and become king again. These guys needed to look up their Geoffrey of Monmouth.
Basically, it would be like digging to find the tomb of Uncle Sam and his wife.

I just had the most amazing idea for a post-apocalyptic roleplay campaign.
There is no Easter Bunny. There is no Tooth Fairy. There is no Once and Future King of England!
Arthur is alive and hanging out just north of Ardougne
They made great brews though.
