Camelot, the legendary castle associated with King Arthur, is believed to have derived its name from the Welsh word "Camelot," which may relate to the term "Camelot" in later romances or stories. Some theories suggest it could be linked to the Latin word "camelus," meaning "camel," referencing the area's geography or local folklore. However, the exact origin of the name remains uncertain and is steeped in myth. Its fame largely comes from medieval literature, particularly the works of Geoffrey of Monmouth and later Arthurian romances.
