Albanactusとは 意味・読み方・使い方

According to Geoffrey of Monmouth, Albanactus was the founding king of Albania or Albany. He was the youngest of three sons of Brutus, a descendant of Aeneas of Troy. According to legend, upon their father's death, the eldest son Locrinus was given Loegria, Camber was given Cambria and Albanactus Albania. These names are merely reverse etymologies. Albanactus, for instance, is a reverse etymology of the Scottish word Albannach (Scotsman). Likewise, Locrinus represents the medieval Welsh word Loegria (England) and Camber represents the Latin word Cambria or the Welsh word Cymru (Wales).
