Elmet (Welsh: Elfed), sometimes Elmed or Elmete, was an independent Brittonic Celtic
Cumbric speaking kingdom between about the 4th century and mid 7th century.
The people of Elmet survived as a distinctly recognized Brittonic Celtic group for centuries afterwards in what later became the smaller area of the West Riding of Yorkshire then West Yorkshire, South Yorkshire and North Derbyshire.[1]
