Книга истории франков
Two works written after Gregory of Tours, added details which are mostly not considered reliable, but which may contain some facts derived from other sources. These are the "Liber Historiae Francorum" and the "Chronicle of Fredegar". It is the first of these which specifies that Chlodio first pushed west through Roman-inhabited territories of the "Silva Carbonaria", a large forested region which ran roughly from Brussels to the Sambre, and then took the Roman city of Turnacum (modern Tournai), before moving south to Cameracum (modern Cambrai). According to Lanting &amp; van der Plicht (2010), the Frankish conquest of Turnacum and Cameracum probably happened in the period 445–450.
