: What is the name of the 'famous stray arrow' that killed King Harold at the 'Battle of Hastings'?Hi,
I've never heard it said the arrow that 'supposedly' wounded King Harold at Hastings actually had a name.
If there is one then it is highly likely that it has been attached recently - or is a result of Norman propaganda.
Cheers

If the person posting this message left their e-mail address, we inserted some random characters to prevent spammers from harvesting their address. Spammers do this with automated "bots" that constantly search the Web looking for e-mail addresses. Since you're a human being, not a bot, you can easily obtain the real address by removing the text that says "ThisisToPreventSpam-XYZ-RemoveThis." including the random number XYZ and the period at the end. For example, <info@ThisIsToPreventSpam-123-RemoveThis.interesting.com> would become <info@interesting.com>.
