These figures, which are clearly visible on maps and aerial photographs, hark back to the very beginnings of the Arthurian Mythos and the precursor of what was later to become the Grail Quest.
Linked to certain star constellations and heavenly bodies, they were the symbolic guardians and guides of the land and its people, irrevocably connected with their destiny.

The Secret Land rediscovers this lost tradition and will forever change your understanding of the true meaning behind the myths and the legendary landscape of western Britain.

In The Secret Land you will discover:

The image of a Great Bear in the landscape at Tintagel, where according to the legend, King Arthur was born. Since Arth means Bear in the old Celtic language, this extraordinary discovery shows that there is good reason for the existence of the Arthurian legend, and that the constellation of the Great Bear in the sky is reflected on Earth as a symbol of heavenly order.

Striking new evidence which shows that many megalithic monuments and legendary sites are positioned according to the polar axis of the land guarded by the Great Bear; a hitherto unexplored but essential element in understanding why these sites were originally built and why they are associated with Arthur. These discoveries will inevitably lead to a complete reappraisal concerning the location of ancient centres  of power.

A bestiary of giant totem animals in the landscape and the shamanic origins of many early Arthurian legends which reflect a deep knowledge of heavenly patterns and their influence on earthly life.
