abstract:King Leodegrance , sometimes Leondegrance or some other minor variation, is the father of Queen Guinevere in Arthurian legend. His kingdom of Carmelide (or Cameliard) is sometimes identified with a location somewhere in the southwest of England, but may be located in Breton Cornouaille near the town of Carhaix, which is the Carhaise of L'Histoire de Merlin (13th century).
