Did Harold get anv arrow through his eye?
In myth and legend yes. In reality, most probably not I think that's what is depicted on the Bayeux Tapestry. Most probably he was killed by Norman Cavalry. ********************************* Unless a claim is absurd (such as Icarus flying on waxen wings) or is refuted by documentation or other acceptable means, it is the normal procedure to accept at least the core of an historical document or claim as made. The English shield wall was fully intact throughout the battle, including at its conclusion. The profesional soldiers of Harold, the Housecarls, remained undaunted, unbroken. It is clear that without the prior death of Harold the wall would not have failed. Barring proof to the contrary, there is no reason to doubt that Harold died as the result of an arrow penetrating his brain through his eye.
