No, the anglo-Saxon Chronicles were established by alfred the Great. Within these texts, no mention of Arthur is found. many see this as a sign he didn't exist. But if you look closely, your notice it doesn't give any defeats of the Saxons. so if Arthur was a real man, this book is the last place to look. Though I must say it tells you alot about the Britain Arthur would have grown up in.

What did king Arthur do as king?
Unknown! We do not even know if there was a King Arthur. Most historians believe the legend derives from a dark age warlord 5-6th century who halted the advance of the Saxon invaders across BritainBetter AnswerArthur may not have been a "king" but the evidence seems to support the existence of someone called Arthur or Arturius who was a battle leader among the Britons in the late 5th Century and early 6th Century AD. He is said to have fought twelve battles against the invading Anglo-Saxons and at each battle he was victorious. According to Nennius and other medieval sources Arthur fought the following battles; 1) On the River Glein (probably somewhere in Cambridgeshire)2, 3, 4 & 5) On the River Dubglas in the region of Linnuis (Lincolnshire)6) On the River Bassas (unknown)7) In the Forest of Celidon (southern Scotland)8) Castle Guinnon (unknown)9) City of the Legion (probably Chester)10) On the River Tribruit (unknown)11) At Mount Agned (unknown)12) At Mount Badon (517AD, probably Barbury Rings) - here the Anglo-Saxons were slaughtered and the threat to Britain that they posed was removed for about 50 years.Then there is the final battle at Camlann (538AD) where Arthur was betrayed and is mortally wounded. This battle does not appear in Nennius.Without Arthur, Britain would have been conquered far sooner than it was by the English and this would have made the British Isles a profoundly different place than they are today.
