An official of the department archelogy at University Col- lege, Cardiff, Alcock heads a staff of 60 volunteers who began digging for Camelot early this year. Backed by a research committee headed by the archaelo-gist Sir Mortimer Wheeler, the work will be long, possibly lasting three or four more years.

The next period of digging will be spring 1968. Of this impressive high hill, overlooking the beautiful counties of Somerset and Dorset, Sir VISIT Mortimer Says: "Four centuries ago, King Henry VIII's appointed antiquary, John Le-land, found that this place was known to local folk as Camelot. Sober-minded historians have hesitated to scorn the ancient belief that, about 500 A.D., there was a veritable Arthur, whether king or soldiei of fortune. Now archelogy has given fresh substance to this Arthurian Camelot." Excavations are limited to summer because Alcock ind his volunteers most of them college students have university careers. "We have achieved the main objectives of our first year's work," said Alcock.

These, were to examine the fortifications of South Cadbury and to look at the interior of the site for the trace of buildings. After examining a stretch of the uncovered wall, Alcock ind his volunteers unearthed beneath it a rougher and older fortification. "We are now able to show that this fortification belongs to the 6th century, that is to say the period of Arthur himse'f," he continued. "We've made enough finds particularly of pottery and metal objects to tie down this date quite closely." In the future he will examine the fortifications more closely. So far only small stretches have been uncovered.
