The Battle of Camlann (Welsh:Cad Camlan or Brwydr Camlan) is reputed to have been the final battle of King Arthur, in which he either died or was fatally wounded fighting his enemy Mordred (who was, in some later versions of the tale, his son or his nephew).
Historicity
The earliest known reference to the battle of Camlann is an entry in the 10th-century Annales Cambriae, recording the battle in the year 537. It mentions Mordred (Medraut), but it does not specify that he and Arthur fought on opposite sides.
Andrew Breeze notes that the Welsh prophetic poem Armes Prydein, 'which internal evidence shows to have been written in Dyfed in the year 940', calls for an army to avenge 'four hundred and four years' of suffering in Wales. That would place the onset of the Welsh troubles at around 537, the year assigned to the battle by the Annales Cambriae, and, as such, Breeze argues Armes Prydein provides a 'less well-known...allusion' to Camlann.
The location of the battle is unknown but there are several possibilities. One is Queen Camel in Somerset, close to the hill fort near South Cadbury, identified by some, including Geoffrey Ashe, with King Arthur's Camelot, where the River Cam flows beneath Camel Hill and Annis Hill.

The Battle of Camlann (Welsh:Cad Camlan or Brwydr Camlan) is reputed to have been the final battle of King Arthur, in which he either died or was fatally wounded fighting his enemy Mordred (who was, in some later versions of the tale, his son or his nephew).
Historicity
The earliest known reference to the battle of Camlann is an entry in the 10th-century Annales Cambriae, recording the battle in the year 537. It mentions Mordred (Medraut), but it does not specify that he and Arthur fought on opposite sides.
Andrew Breeze notes that the Welsh prophetic poem Armes Prydein, 'which internal evidence shows to have been written in Dyfed in the year 940', calls for an army to avenge 'four hundred and four years' of suffering in Wales. That would place the onset of the Welsh troubles at around 537, the year assigned to the battle by the Annales Cambriae, and, as such, Breeze argues Armes Prydein provides a 'less well-known...allusion' to Camlann.
The location of the battle is unknown but there are several possibilities. One is Queen Camel in Somerset, close to the hill fort near South Cadbury, identified by some, including Geoffrey Ashe, with King Arthur's Camelot, where the River Cam flows beneath Camel Hill and Annis Hill.
