Meaux

Meauls, Meaus, Miaus, Miaux, Miax

A city in France, just east of Paris.

The Vulgate Estoire del Saint Graal calls it the birthplace of King Mordrains. At the time of Mordrain's birth, it was ruled by Count Sevain, who was ordered to send a certain number of male youths to Rome. Mordrains (then called Evalach) was one of these children.

According to the Vulgate Mort Artu, Arthur once stayed in the city during his war with Lancelot. Arthur had Gawain carried here when Lancelot had generously refrained from killing him in the duel outside Gannes.
