Camelot Discovered in Lawrenceville

Gwinnetians who enjoy a bit of Arthurian legend will be thrilled to learn that mythical Camelot is a lot closer to home than they may have anticipated. The exact location of Camelot, seen above in an 1867 illustration by Gustave Dore, has been a subject of hot debate since it first appeared in 12th century French romances, eventually becoming the legendary capitol of King Arthur's realm and a key element in the saga of the Holy Grail. Though the location of Camelot has been lost to the ages, most texts place it somewhere in Great Britain, and many scholars claim that it never existed at all, but was rather a fictional creation of the chivalric writers in the Medieval period.

Nothing could be farther from the truth.

Camelot is in fact located at 368 West Pike Street, Lawrenceville. As expected, this revelation has completely upended everything previously known about King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table. Is it possible that the Arthurian chronicles so closely associated with Medieval England actually took place in Gwinnett County?

Short answer, yes. Seen above, Gwinnett's own Camelot. We visited the historic site and demanded to see the Holy Grail, and which point we were first treated as though we were insane, and ultimately forced to leave when the current Camelotians called the authorities. But if this be not the true Camelot, then how, dear readers, would you explain the presence of ...

... Medieval Times? Where there's smoke, there's fire, and Camelot on Pike Street plus a Medieval castle at Sugarloaf Mills adds up to a conflagration of Arthurian proportions. Fear not, Gwinnetians, we have not given up our quest for the Grail, and as always, you'll be the first to know when we've acquired it.
