Oral Traditions Can Be Corroborated by Other Oral History

Oral traditions can be corroborated by other oral traditions, independent attestations of the same sort of event. You can point to the teldon stele in israel palestine, which corroborated the existence of a ruler named david. There are examples within britain too. Not long ago, the british television show timet went to a hill top in somerset that local oral tradition claimed was the site of a mediaeval castle. But they excavated and found the foundations of a large norman one keep. And it had been built, probably never finished, and then finally dismantled and demolished in the 12 hundreds.
