Wow a mirage, also known as Fata Morgana ..... and the latter is related to the Straits of Messina, the King Arthur Saga , the Voyage of Normans into the Mediterranium Area, the sowrd Excalibur and One Thousand and One Night Saga (Yes indeed!). Morgiana or "Morgana" or Marjanah is a clever slave girl from Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves. But ... I forgot to mention, this Ali Baba story was not part of the orininal stories and was added later in France ... And the 12th-century French writer Chrétien de Troyes, who added Lancelot and the Holy Grail to the King Arthur story, began the genre of Arthurian romance that became a significant strand of medieval literature. In these French stories, the narrative focus often shifts from King Arthur himself to other characters, such as various Knights of the Round Table. Arthurian literature thrived during the Middle Ages and France A great (hi)story by the way! This is just a great visual explanation of a mirage. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Eine Fata Morgana (engl. Mirage) .... und wer war diese Fata/Fee nochmals? Ach ja, eine Sagengestalt (in arabischen Märchen und) in der Dichtung um König Artus, die ihre Macht besonders in Luftspiegelungen zeigte, wie sie auch heute noch in der Straße von Messina auftreten. . planet-science/categories/under-11s/our-world/2012/01/what-is-a-mirage.aspx
