Tristan and Isolde as an Alchemical Metaphor

Bronze Age Allegory in Mythological Form

I have been thinking of the legend of Tristan and Isolde as an alchemical metaphor for the creation of Bronze.

Tristan (Cornwall = Tin) = Isodole (Southern Ireland = Copper) becoming the two elements of Bronze. The part of Ireland directly across from Cornwall is called 'The Copper Coast' as it had the largest copper deposits in ancient times.
