Camelot mentioned by chrestien de troyes is a coruption of Cameluk that Edward 1st mentioned. This is a short version of Cambusmaelok, campus/campi means land then maelok prince of Strathclyde. Saint Maelok attends the second council of Braga 572ad. Maelok's brother was Hael who is killed by Arthur. Maelok's brother is Gildas and Gildas's father was Cawr king of Strathclyde, Cawr was killed by Arthur. Cameluk is about 2 miles from Athkar where we get Arthur from meaning bears fort. Hael and Arthur sail together on Loch lomond. Merlin in converted to Christianity at Stobo Church nearby.

Logic would suggest that an ancient hill fort would be a rather odd choice when, at the time there were plenty of forma abandoned Roman forts still standing that with a bit of effort could be repaired and put to good use. There is proof of of this being the case. The Anglo saxsons in time did just that.. The idea that the post Roman Britons wouldn't use what was still at hand is unbelievable.
