Camelot is the most famous fictional castle and court associated with the legendary King Arthur. Camelot is the fantastic capital of Arthur's realm, from which he fought many of the battles and quests that made up his life. Camelot as a place is associated with ideals like justice, bravery and truth, all the virtues Arthur and his knights embodied in the romances. As Camelot is absent from the early Arthurian resources and its location, if it even existed, is unknown. Thus most modern academic scholars regard it as being entirely fictional, its vague geography being perfect for romance writers: "Camelot, located nowhere in particular, can be anywhere."
