Talk:John of Wallingford
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
To whom was the elephant presented? The year 1255 can't be right if John died in 1214. Adam Bishop 02:47, 3 February 2006 (UTC) Sciencebloke 20:40, 3 February 2006 (UTC)Good point - From what I understand the illustrated manuscript of the chronicles of John of Wallingford was completed by monks at St Albans some years after his death, and they were responsible for the illustration of the elephant. I've put a note to indicate that and a link to the picture of the elephant.
