Let Us Return to #Avalon ... wait a minute @FunPlusGames @KingOfAvalonKOA! wasn't that where King Arthur was BURIED? Don't we want to go back to #CAMELOT?
Yes, KINGS GROUP offers the FREE adventure-RPG (available only for Windows, through App Store or Google Play) on a page you can get to through 'the emboldened link(s)' below; but first–after a mention of the free mining-software (giving us free Bitcoin in exchange for energy we're wasting anyway)–I want to teach you about those words.
And I find you understand words better if you see 'the words at their base' (then going on to look at the words at those words' bases, then the words at those words' bases, etc.-etc. ad infinitum into their Foundation)
The place-name “Avalon” (source of the surname) is probably built on ancient words that mean "Apple."
The name “Camelot” is probably built on the Roman forerunner of #Colchester (built on--with the suffix derived from words that mean "Camp, Fortress"--Colonia (a Roman Colony whose residents have the same Rights as Roman Citizen), though Folk-Etymology ties it to ancient words that mean "Cole's Castle");
or it might be identified with #Winchester--the prefix derived from Celtic Venta (Market)--or with #Cadbury Castle. ("Cadbury" literally meant "fortified place of a man named #Cada." The name "Cada" is a variant of either #Cade (from a nickname that means "Round") or #Koda (means Friend, Friendly, Companion or Allies).
Avalon is the island where Excalibur was forged and where King Arthur was buried. Camelot was the in-land citadel whence King Arthur ruled.
