 It is unclear whether Corbenic is to be identified with the castle inadvertently levelled by Sir Balin when he delivers the Dolorous Stroke upon King Pellam ("Morte", book II); if so, then Corbenic is in Listeneise (and is presumably rebuilt at some point).The Lancelot-Grail gives the name of its kingdom only as the 'Foreign Country'.Helaine Newstead and Roger Sherman Loomis have presented a convincing case for the origins of the name Corbenic in a myth concerning a type of Welsh cornucopia - to wit, the horn (of plenty) of Brân the Blessed, a magical, food-providing talisman.
