	King of the Britons - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		After the death of Cadwallader, the kings of Britain were reduced to such a small domain that they ceased to be kings of the whole island.
		The heirs to the Celtic-British throne continued through the Welsh kings of Gwynedd until that line was forced to submit itself to the English in the 13th century.
		Owen Tudor, the ancestor of Henry VII of England, was a maternal descendant of the kings of Gwynedd and his marriage with Elizabeth of York signified the merging of the two royal houses (as well as the feuding houses of York and Lancaster).

	Talk:King of the Britons - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		For example, a person reading the article on Cadwallon ap Cadfan of Gwynedd might see the table at the bottom that shows his successor as Cadwallader and simply assume that was his real successor, when in fact it was the usurper Cadfael ap Cynfeddw of Gwynedd.
		When I saw the template at the bottom of Vortigern stating that he was one of the "Kings of the Britons", my response wasn't particularly kind.
		For every entry I have entered, I tried to make it clear that the basis for the king is not historically factual and may have been created by Geoffrey of Monmouth.

	King, Dunmail, Cumbria, Medieval, History, Dark Ages, Britons
		According to legend, Dunmail was the last king of Cumberland, whose army met a terrible defeat by the combined forces of Edmund king of the Saxons and King Malcom of Scotland.
		Most texts refer to the king as Dunmail (as still used today in the Lake district) but in Palgraves History of the the Anglo-Saxon's [2] he is named as Donald or perhaps Dumhnail and he is stated as being of Scotish decent.
		The Regnal Chronologies state that Dunmail was a king of Strathclyde but this still does not rule him out as of being of Norse lineage as the capital of Strathclyde was sacked by the Vikings in 870.

	King Arthur: A Man for the Ages--Arthur, king or battle commander?
		The figure of Arthur begins as a war hero, the praises of whom are sung in war poems by the Celts and the Welsh.
		The legends tell us that Arthur was a wise and powerful king, who ruled from a giant and glorious castle and who commanded the loyalty of hundreds of men.
		The king who was the symbol of the prosperity of the nation and the land was sick in his heart and his soul and had sinned against his God; the nation and the land would surely suffer as well.

	History of the Early British Kings
		What follows is a summary of the history of the early kings of the early Britons as it is given in both Geoffrey of Monmouth and the Welsh chronicles.
		Amongst the ancient records that the Britons themselves left behind, there is preserved (in Nennius at least) a list of the ancestors of the early British kings as they were counted generation by generation back to Japheth, the son of Noah.
		He began as king of the Venedoti (men of Gwynedd) and succeeded to the kingship of all the Britons by engaging in battle Ethelfrith, the Saxon king of Northumbria, who, with Ethelbert of Kent, carried out the massacre of the British monks at Bangor in AD 604.

		Kings were anointed not by God, but who should stand out more cruel than the rest, and after a little were murdered by the anointers.
		The civil strife was apparently between Vortigern, perhaps leading Britons glad to be free of Roman rule, and Ambrosius, the son of a highly ranked Roman family.

	The Fisher King
		The tradition of the king as the mate of his land lies behind the Waste Land theme in the Grail legends, but the theme in incoherent and amorphous.
		The pattern ought to be this: a king is crippled or ill; as a result his land is barren; the hero heal s the king and fertility is restored to the land; probably, the hero's feat shows that he is the rightful heir.
		It clearly sustains the inhabitants of the Grail castle and is further accredited with the longevity of the Fisher King.

	Letter to Riothamus: Sidonius Apollinaris
		If the word means Britons, people from the island nation of Britain, then the implication is that a British king, crossed the English Channel and was holding court in Gaul.
		The Gothic History of Jordanes tells us that Riothamus, king of the Brittones, came at the head of a 12,000 man force at the behest of Anthemius, the Roman Emperor, to aid in combatting the Visigoths.
		The bearer of this is an obscure and humble person, so harmless, insignificant, and helpless that he seems to invite his own discomfiture; his grievance is that the Bretons are secretly enticing his slaves away.

		However anthropologically accurate King Arthur may or may not be, it turns out to be as much of a swoony valentine to a social ideal that never existed as any other Arthurian text.
		Historians have thought for centuries that King Arthur was only a myth, but the legend was based on a real hero, torn between his private ambitions and his public sense of duty.
		Britain needs a king -- someone not only to defend against the current threat of invading Saxons, but to lead the isle into a new age.

		You might be forgiven for thinking that Daniel Mersey’s book, titled Arthur, King of the Britons, has something to do with the legendary monarch.
		Almost half of this thin volume tells the uncertain history of sixth and seventh century Britain, guessing when and where the Saxons and native Britons were hacking each other to pieces, in battles that may not have really happened.
		It seems like a desperate attempt to increase the word count of a work that is full of enthusiasm for the legend, but fails to explore it in any real depth.
