The palace in Tintagel is believed to have been built in the sixth century - around the time that the king may have lived.
Researchers have uncovered 3ft (1 metre) thick palace walls and more than 150 fragments of ancient pottery and glass which had been imported from around the world.
The kingdom was centred in the area we now know as Devon, but included parts of modern Cornwall and Somerset, with its eastern boundary changing over time as the gradual westward expansion of the neighbouring Anglo-Saxon kingdom of Wessex encroached on its territory.
Tintagel Castle is a medieval fortification located on the peninsula of Tintagel Island, close to the village of Tintagel in Cornwall, England.
The facts around the real King Arthur are mired in myth and folklore, but historians believe he ruled Britain from the late 5th and early 6th centuries.Many historians agree that while the king was a genuine historical figure in early Britain, he could in fact be a composite of multiple people from an age of poor record keeping.
The Dark Ages is an imprecise period of time which describes the centuries following the collapse of the Western Roman Empire.

They discovered the birthplace of a fictional character? That's great, maybe they found the final resting place of Jesus Christ too.

The fact that THIS is considered an argument basicly says everything.
We have people like Lane Craig, modern christian "scholars" who openly say facts are totally secondary to your feelings. He is not ashamed to say this, today. And that has been going on for two thousand years with christianity, while they were totally authenticly copying and not at all rewriting and "correcting" all their texts over and over. Trusting any christian text as historicly accurate is asinine.

We've known about Tingatel for decades. This is not new at all. It was likely the local capital of a Dumnonian sub-king, not the site of King Arthur.
