Prester John Revisited
1 year ago

Prester John was a mythological figure which was taken for granted as a real person and ruler of a vast empire. The myth started with a letter that was sent to Pope Alexander III and Emperor Manuel Comenos in 1156 AD.
I decided to revisit the topic of Prester John, in response to multiple comments which occurred on our first video. I thought this topic could use some more clarity, and I wanted to explain the logic behind the illustrations I created.
