About: Gotthard Pass   Sponge Permalink

An Entity of Type : owl:Thing, within Data Space : 134.155.108.49:8890 associated with source dataset(s)

Though the pass was locally known in Antiquity, it was not generally used until the early 13th century, because it was guarded by the Old Man From Scene 24 (as seen in Monty Python and the Holy Grail), who would demand that travellers tell him the air speed velocity of an unladen swallow. Fortunately for European commerce, the Old Man has been jailed under European Union law for pursuing this practice although unable to define 'unladen' or 'swallow'.
