The Plantagenets had two ancestral grandmothers
named Melusine, one the daughter of King Elinus of Albany and the
other the daughter of Baldwin du Bourg, King of Jerusalem.
In the first instance the Plantagenets derived their name from a
princess named Plantina (possibly derived from Plantanu or Planta-
Anu) who was actually the younger sister of Maelasanu des Scythes or
Melusine McLean and this obviously means that the Plantagenets were
not actually directly descended in the male line from Melusine
herself, who in a matriarchal Pictish system of inheritance, was the
senior daughter of King Gille Sidhean of Albany, and the heir of her
mother Queen Pressina or more formally The Queen Bruidhe-Anu des
Scythes.
Melusine certainly was the matriarch of the Angevin or Anjou dynasty,
but her senior heir and the first Count of Anjou was Maelo de Vere,
not Tortolf de Rennes, making the Plantagenet dynasty descending
from the younger sister Plantanu, a junior branch of the Imperial and
Vere Angevins

Monty Python unforgettable contribution to the argument-
WOMAN : Well, how did you become king then?
ARTHUR: The Lady of the Lake, [angels start singing] her arm clad in the purest shimmering samite, held aloft Excalibur from the bosom of the water signifying by Divine Providence that I, Arthur, was to carry Excalibur. [singing stops] That is why I am your king!
DENNIS: Listen, strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony.
ARTHUR: Be quiet!
DENNIS: Well you can't expect to wield supreme executive power just because some watery tart threw a sword at you!
ARTHUR: Shut up!
DENNIS: I mean, if I went around saying, "I was an emperor just because some moistened bink had lobbed a scimitar at me" they'd put me away!
ARTHUR: Shut up! Will you shut up!
DENNIS: Ah, now we see the violence inherent in the system.
ARTHUR: Shut up!
