Arthur makes up a relevant figure of the literary and folklore songs of the "Matter of Britain" during the Middle Ages. The first appearances are in poetic sources such as Y Gododding , the writings of Gildas and pseudohistorical accounts of Annales Cambriae and Historia Brittonum. King Arthur became into an international in the " Historia Regum Britanniae " (12 th century) by Geoffrey of Monmoth an imaginative and fanciful account of the kings of Britain where he appears either as a great warrior defending Britain from human and supernatural enemies or as a magical figure of Welsh folklore related with the Underworld. In the work of Geoffrey of Monmouth the events often served as the starting point for later stories. Geoffrey depicted Arthur as a king of Britain who defeated the Saxon...
