description: "Pierre Plantard de Saint-Clair was a French technical artist, best known for being the principal fabricator of the Priory of Sion hoax, by which he claimed from the 1960s onwards that he was a male-line Merovingian descendant of Dagobert II and the \"Great Monarch\" prophesied by Nostradamus. Today in France, he is commonly regarded as having been a con artist."
