Aurochs, Arthur, and the Anvil

Articles discussing Sub-Roman Britain, or The Brythonic Heroic Age as I call it, hunting down the origins of Arthurian Tropes, as well as blacksmithing, and maybe once and a while cryptids, and some relevant Archaeology.

Aurochs, Arthur, and the Anvil helps me escape the temporal parochialism that comes from spending so much time studying the events of the past two centuries.

A newsletter on economics, geopolitics and history from Adam Tooze. More substantial than the twitter feed. More freewheeling than what you might read from me in FT, Foreign Policy, New Statesman.

Adam Tooze uses eye-catching charts to explain the trends, both obvious and subtle, that are shaping our world.
