There is a clear spike in the term “Avalon” in the French texts first in the early 1600s and then in the 1700s. ... I would guess that Camelot is mentioned more in terms of Arthur winning battles and thriving as both a King and a warrior, whereas Avalon is mentioned more in relation to Arthur's birth and death.Feb 11, 2014
