《不列顛諸王史》（拉丁語：Historia regum Britanniae；英語：The History of the Kings of Britain；原名De gestis Britonum；英語：On the Deeds of the Britons）是蒙茅斯的杰弗里在1136年左右創作的一本歷史書，以年代先後順序記載了兩千年裡出現的不列顛諸王的生平。它是不列顛傳說的主要源頭之一。

直到16世紀，歷史學家還把它當做信史[1]，但此書內容多為杜撰，只是作為一本文學作品頗有價值。李爾王的故事最早見於本書，而亞瑟王傳奇的流行和此書不無關係。

來源

蒙茅斯的杰弗里宣稱此書譯自一部古老的文獻，這部文獻則是牛津的沃爾特給他的[2][3][4]，但現代歷史學家並不認為這是事實[2][5][6]。此書可能的來源包括吉爾達斯的《不列顛的毀滅》（De Excidio et Conquestu Britanniae，6世紀） 、比德的《英吉利教會史》（8世紀）、《不列顛人的歷史》（9世紀，作者可能是内尼厄斯）、《威尔士编年史》（10世紀，作者不明）、塔利埃辛的詩和威爾士傳說《基爾夫與奧爾溫》（11-12世紀）[2]。
