1,300-year-old Latin, Greek and Christian inscriptions found on a windowsill at Tintagel Castle suggest 'the site of King Arthur's conception' had a multicultural community

    The stone is a two-foot long piece of slate which served as a window ledge
    It is inscribed with Latin writing, Greek letters and Christian symbols
    Among the inscriptions are Roman and Celtic names 'Tito' or Titus, and 'Budic'
    English Heritage manages the site and believes this could prove medieval Tintagel was a multicultural site
