Gog and Magog
Under the influence of Geoffrey's Gogmagog (Goemagot), "Gos et Magos", the French rendition of "Gog and Magog", were recast in the role of enemies defeated by the giant Gargantua, and taken prisoner to King Arthur who held court in London in Rabelais's "Gargantua" (1534). Gargantua's father Pantagruel also had an ancestor named Gemmagog, whose name was also a corruption of "Gog and Magog", influenced by the British legend.
