 In the 21st century, the legend lives on, not only in literature but also in adaptations for theatre, film, television, comics and other media.The historical basis for King Arthur was long debated by scholars.One school of thought, citing entries in the "Historia Brittonum" ("History of the Britons") and "Annales Cambriae" ("Welsh Annals"), saw Arthur as a genuine historical figure, a Romano-British leader who fought against the invading Anglo-Saxons some time in the late 5th to early 6th century.
