You just wait till I prove the connection between Ferdawsi's Book of Kings and Geoffrey of Monmouth's History of the Kings of Britain. And I am not kidding: it is there. It's a bloody wonder nobody noticed - I know that Celticists and Medieval Latinists don't often trouble their heads with Persian literature - or vice versa - but crikey, Indo-Europeanists at least ought to be a bit quicker on the uptake!
