“Montezuma himself was said to have descended from white men called "Cambaraga", who came from over the sea 300 years before the Spanish. Harris claims that the Zuni had many Welsh words in their language, and theorised that the "Cambaraga" could potentially be connected to the Welsh Madoc folklore.”
