Whoops, sorry, I'm getting my Merlin mixed up with my Robin Hood. But yeah, the idea still stands. Probably a historic figure that existed, doesn't mean the legends about him are true and unembellished.

(Merlyn in TH White's The Sword in the Stone is a deliberately meta reference, him traveling backwards through time is a metaphor for White projecting himself and his own opinions and politics into the story from the future)

British postwar fantasy is full of anachronisms. Even LotR has a reference to express trains early on. This gradually fell out of favor b/c it conflicted w/"worldbuilding." Beagle's The Last Unicorn is one of the few American fantasies w/overt anachronisms.
