Legend of Tundal. 448 —As the protagonist lived in 1149, there is no doubt that this legend dates from the second half of the twelfth century. The author of the Latin version, an Irish monk, states that he composed it from a text written in a barbarous tongue. 449 Was this an Arabic text ? The great number of Moslem features, several of them very striking, would seem to suggest it.
