And many.many others. I chose to leave out the Ravenna Cosmography and the Antonine Itineries since they are basically lists of place names and the distances between them rather than a record of events.

The British section of the Antonine itinery can be found at- http://www.roman-britain.org/antonine-itinerary.htm

The Ravenna Cosmography can be found at several sites including- http://www.roman-britain.org/frontiers/hw_ravenna.htm and http://www.kmatthews.org.uk/Ravenna_Cosmography/index.html

With reluctance I have left out the wonderfull History of the Kings of Britain by Geoffery of Monmouth. Many people, much more learned than I, have condemned it as a work of fiction. And it would have added hundreds more pages to an already over long web site. But his work is available at several sites includingt- http://www.sacred-texts.com/neu/eng/gem/index.htm http://www.caerleon.net/history/geoffrey/ www.yorku.ca/inpar/geoffrey_thompson.pdf http://www.medievalgenealogy.org.uk/sources/authorshton.shtml
