The earliest mention of him is in Welsh texts, where he is never called "king," but rather dux bellorum, ARTHUR means "war leader." Medieval Welsh texts call him ameraudur "emperor" which could also mean "war leader." In early Welsh works the word art was used as a figurative synonym for "warrior."Â
