Has there ever been a really mad cool bit of history that was always presented to you as a fact, then you were let down when you discovered it wasn't so?
For me, it was berserkers. Great, huge, hairy mindless Vikings, so caught up with battle-lust they couldn't tell friend from foe!! Feeling no pain, swording about like a windmill in a whirlwind, flattening enemies by the dozens - HACK, SLASH, CRUNCH, STABBITY-STAB!! You know - howling, raging, roaring, shield-biting berserkers!!
No such animal. *sigh*
