The Legend of Merlin

Merlin was best known as Arthur's advisor, prophet, and magician. He originally served Arthur's father Uther Pendragon, but was later given Arthur to care for and raise as a man.

History: It is said he is the creation of Geoffrey of Monmouth, who in his twelfth-century History of the Kings of Britain (known as Historia Regnum Britanniae or History of the Kings of Britain) combined the Welsh traditions about a bard and prophet named Myrddin with the story that the ninth-century chronicler Nennius tells about Ambrosius.
