Auvergne

Overgne


A region in south central France, conquered in Layamon’s Brut by Hoel of Brittany for Arthur.

The Prose Lancelot gives King Aramont of Brittany as its overlord. He became Uther Pendragon's vassal in order to brave Claudas.

According to Malory, it was one of Lancelot’s lands. Lancelot made Sir Gahalantyne the duke of Auvergne in return for Gahalantyne’s support in the war against Arthur.
