"The Artognou stone, sometimes referred to as
the Arthur stone,
is an archaeological artefact uncovered
in Cornwall in the United Kingdom.
It was discovered in 1998 in securely dated
sixth-century
contexts
among the ruins
at
Tintagel Castle in Cornwall,
a secular, high status settlement of sub-Roman Britain.
It appears to have originally been a practice dedication stone for some building or other public structure, but it was broken in two and re-used as part of a drain when the original structure was destroyed. Upon its discovery the stone achieved some notoriety due to the suggestion that "Artognou" was connected to the legendary King Arthur,
though scholars such as John Koch have criticized the evidence for this connection."
"At the top right-hand corner of the fragment is a deeply cut motif consisting (as visible) of
a letter
A
and another incomplete character on either side of a large diagonal cross;
the whole may represent a common Christian symbol,
a Christogram-the Greek alphabet letters Alpha and Omega flanking a large Greek letter Chi (written like a Roman X),
the initial of
Christos (Christ).
Below this and to the left, but overlapping it slightly, is a smaller, more lightly incised inscription in Latin, reading:
PATERN[--] COLI AVI FICIT ARTOGNOU .
This seems to have been repeated lower down and to the right; only the letters COL[.] and FICIT, on two lines, can be seen on the fragment. This repetition, the overlap with the Christogram and the shallow carving (scratching would be a more accurate description) all suggest that this was not a formal inscription but an example of graffiti.
The inscription has been translated by the Celtic Inscribed Stones Project as
"Artognou descendant of Patern[us] Colus made (this). Colus made (this)."
The name
Artognou
means "Bear Knowing",
from the Brittonic root *arto "bear" plus *gnawo- "to know",
and is cognate with
the Old Breton name
Arthnou
and Welsh name
Arthneu.
Also found
in the sixth-century fort
at Tintagel
were
numerous remains of expensive pottery, glasswork, and
coins from Visigothic Spain and
the Byzantine Empire
(when excavated in the 1930s
by C. A. Ralegh Radford).
It would have had to be a powerful state to have sustained trade with the Mediterranean."

"Recent studies, however, question the reliability of the Historia Brittonum."

To summarize.
Any knowledge is the process of time to pass to add facts, events, resources of facts.
While so,
Port Arthur town in China may be connected to King Arthur name and legends or links
and town Merv in Turkemistan, Turkmenia to Wizard Mellin legends.
But this connections is a fantazies. No evedences for me to know them.
