Kamber

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Kamber (or Camber) was a legendary king of Cambria, according to the account of Geoffrey of Monmouth.

Kamber was the son of Brutus of Britain, and a descendant of Aeneas of Troy. Upon his father's death he was given the region named after himself, Cambria. This area corresponds roughly to present-day Wales, and the name Cambria is still sometimes used in Welsh tourist literature and journalism (see, for example, Cambria Magazine).

He aided his brother, Locrinus, in the defeat of Humber, King of the Huns, in revenge for Humber's murder of their younger brother, Albanactus.
