Camulodunum, modern Colchester. Arthur is commonly imagined as a Welsh warlord, but in his time most of what is now England was still Romano-British, and the two main settlement areas of the English were in Sussex and in East Anglia. Colchester is perfectly placed between these two areas, and would make an ideal "capital" for an anti-English warlord like Arthur.

Though Arthur was 5th century King Riothamus and Camulodonum ceased to be the Roman capital after Boudicea, Arthur's tale is an amalgam of stories from the "beforetimes", rather like Atlantis.

This is certainly wrong. Arthur wasn't a king at all, he was an upper class Romano-Briton who organized a resistance. He may have been Ambrosius Aurelius, if not, then he was Aurelius' peer and his successor. Riothamus (a title, not a name) lived over a generation before Arthur. His campaign against the Goths might well have inspired later legends of Arthur campaigning on the continent to re-unite the Roman Empire, but the stories are almost certainly unrelated in fact.

It was in the Ottoman Empire. The original name was Kumulot because it was in the desert.
