THE MATTER OF BRITAIN: - damowords

The Life of Saint Cyngar tells us he was the son of King Gerren
Llyngesog of Dumnonia, i.e. Geraint son of Erbin.
Cyngar/Congar ***** gave up his claim to Dyfed - where
Pembrokeshire's Llanwyngar recalls his name & rule - &
devoted his life to God's work. He went on to found churches
from north Wales to Brittany, resulting in his eventual
sainthood. Of these, a few miles from South Cadbury stands
North Cadbury, a smaller hillfort from the same period. This
was probably the site for the original Congar's Fort, which gave

a couple of miles from the River Camel, which could well have
lent its name to the idea of Tintagel being. Camelot. It is
important to Arthurian scholars at is the only site ever put
forward as the birth-place of Arthur.
Returning, therefore, to Tintagel, he (Uther) took the castle, and not the
castle only, but Igerne also therein, and on this wise fulfilled he his
desire. Thereafter were they linked together in no little mutual love, and
two children were born unto them, a son and a daughter, whereof the son
was named Arthur HKB
Arthur's mother, Igerne, was married to the Duke of Cornwall
known as Gwrlais/Gorlais. ******* However, it becomes
