		The Battle of Camlann is best known as the final battle of King Arthur, where he either died in battle, or was fatally wounded.
		As the surviving accounts of this battle are all generally little more than legend or myth (and all versions exhibit traces of folklore), some historians doubt this battle even took place.
		Older Welsh tradition has the battle as the outcome of a feud between Arthur and Medrod (Mordred) with its origins in a quarrel between Arthur's wife Gwenhwyfar (later Guinevere) and her sister Gwenhwyfach.

	Battle of Camlann
		ost of the Arthurian accounts written after the 11th century name 'Camlann' as the location where Arthur fought his last battle against the forces of his rebellious son Mordred (the Cornish version of the name), and where Arthur was mortally wounded and then carried off to his final burial on the Isle of Avalon.
		We want to re-create a typical medieval village, not a particular one, and the fact that the historical Camlann location is uncertain, and that Arthurian romances were very popular in the 14th century, were two good reasons for us to choose the name for our project.
		At some point we will construct a 'typical village history', going back to the battle of Camlann, to be spun out by a village story-teller, which will allow us to illustrate how villages changed and developed, and were passed on by different owners, over the 1000 years of the middle ages.
