Abstract
The most likely place of compilation for the narratives in the Historia Regum Britanniae is the tenth-century court of King Athelstan. The Breton ruling house that sought refuge there is the most likely beneficiary of a Breton royal agenda that runs throughout the work. Moreover, Athelstan’s biography provides plausible exemplars for much of Arthur’s unprecedented imperial image.
