Investigating Investigating The Wars of Independence: 1296–1357 The Wars of Independence is one of most exciting and important periods of Scottish history, and is widely studied in Scotland’s schools. Throughout Scotland today are the remains of many historic sites which bore witness to these events. This resource identifies those sites and shows how investigating the surviving historical evidence can inspire learning, help separate fact from fiction and bring the reality of this period to life for both young and old.

(In the school • looking at newspaper reports of modern conflicts to playground? In the street? In the world?) look at the reasons for conflict (for example disputes • Who is involved? (Individuals? Groups of people? over land ownership, governance and natural assets Countries?) or discrimination on ethnic or religious grounds) • • How do people physically express discontent today? researching local evidence of the consequences of (Demonstrations? Rebellions? Guerrilla raids? Civil war? conflicts such as ruined buildings, plaques, statues, commemorative events, changes in local industries International war?) etc. • What kinds of weapons do people use in war today? • using role play to 'try' William Wallace under current • What is the outcome of war?

  • THE MYTHOLOGY, TRADITIONS and HISTORY of Macdhubhsith
    THE MYTHOLOGY, TRADITIONS and HISTORY OF MacDHUBHSITH ― MacDUFFIE CLAN (McAfie, McDuffie, MacFie, MacPhee, Duffy, etc.) VOLUME 2 THE LANDS OF OUR FATHERS PART 2 Earle Douglas MacPhee (1894 - 1982) M.M., M.A., M.Educ., LL.D., D.U.C., D.C.L. Emeritus Dean University of British Columbia This 2009 electronic edition Volume 2 is a scan of the 1975 Volume VII. Dr. MacPhee created Volume VII when he added supplemental data and errata to the original 1792 Volume II. This electronic edition has been amended for the errata noted by Dr. MacPhee. - i - THE LIVES OF OUR FATHERS PREFACE TO VOLUME II In Volume I the author has established the surnames of most of our Clan and has proposed the sources of the peculiar name by which our Gaelic compatriots defined us. In this examination we have examined alternate progenitors of the family. Any reader of Scottish history realizes that Highlanders like to move and like to set up small groups of people in which they can become heads of families or chieftains. This was true in Colonsay and there were almost a dozen areas in Scotland where the clansman and his children regard one of these as 'home'. The writer has tried to define the nature of these homes, and to study their growth. It will take some years to organize comparative material and we have indicated in Chapter III the areas which should require research. In Chapter IV the writer has prepared a list of possible chiefs of the clan over a thousand years. The books on our Clan give very little information on these chiefs but the writer has recorded some probable comments on his chiefship.

No obstante, en términos de su tamaño y carácter interno, hay buenas razones para considerar el Reino de Escocia y el Señorío de Irlanda como modelos de sociedad política. Más allá las significativas diferencias en el estatus, leyes y relaciones externas, hacia el año 1400 los dos territorios pueden relacionarse por compartir experiencias comunes de gobierno y de guerras internas. Éstas son las más aparentes desde una perspectiva regional. Tanto Irlanda y Escocia operaban como sistemas políticos regionalizados en los que predominaban los intereses de las principales casas aristocráticas. La importancia de dichas casas fue reconocida tanto internamente como por el gobierno real. Observando en regiones paralelas, Munster y el nordeste de Escocia, es posible identificar rasgos comparables y diferencias de largo término en dichas sociedades.

  • Kingdom of Strathclyde from Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia
    Kingdom of Strathclyde From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Strathclyde (lit. "Strath of the Clyde"), originally Brythonic Ystrad Clud, was one of the early medieval kingdoms of the Kingdom of Strathclyde Celtic people called the Britons in the Hen Ogledd, the Teyrnas Ystrad Clut Brythonic-speaking parts of what is now southern Scotland and northern England. The kingdom developed during the ← 5th century–11th → post-Roman period. It is also known as Alt Clut, the Brythonic century name for Dumbarton Rock, the medieval capital of the region. It may have had its origins with the Damnonii people of Ptolemy's Geographia. The language of Strathclyde, and that of the Britons in surrounding areas under non-native rulership, is known as Cumbric, a dialect or language closely related to Old Welsh. Place-name and archaeological evidence points to some settlement by Norse or Norse–Gaels in the Viking Age, although to a lesser degree than in neighbouring Galloway. A small number of Anglian place-names show some limited settlement by incomers from Northumbria prior to the Norse settlement. Due to the series of language changes in the area, it is not possible to say whether any Goidelic settlement took place before Gaelic was introduced in the High Middle Ages. After the sack of Dumbarton Rock by a Viking army from Dublin in 870, the name Strathclyde comes into use, perhaps reflecting a move of the centre of the kingdom to Govan. In the same period, it was also referred to as Cumbria, and its inhabitants as Cumbrians. During the High Middle Ages, the area was conquered by the Kingdom of Alba, becoming part of The core of Strathclyde is the strath of the River Clyde.

  • Earl of Dunbar and the Founder of HDT WHAT? INDEX
    HENRY’S RELATIVES SUB SPE MISS ANNA JANE DUNBAR ASA DUNBAR CHARLES DUNBAR COUSIN CHARLES DUNBAR CYNTHIA DUNBAR THOREAU LOUISA DUNBAR MARY JONES DUNBAR ELIJAH DUNBAR Henry David Thoreau’s great-great-great-grandfather Robert Dunbar was born about 1630-1634 presumably in Scotland, and shortly after 1650 emigrated to Hingham in the Plymouth Colony where he and Rose Dunbar, Thoreau’s great-great-great-grandmother, raised three daughters and eight sons. Robert died on September 19, 1693 and Rose died in November 1700, there in Hingham. Another member of the extended clan and thus a relative of Henry David Thoreau, William Dunbar (1460?-1520?), is considered to have been one of the finest poets produced by Scotland. However, closer to Thoreau genealogically was the Reverend Samuel Dunbar (1704- 1783) of Stoughton MA, whose sermons are preserved by the American Antiquarian Society. HDT WHAT? INDEX THE DUNBAR CLAN THE DUNBARS ANNO DOMINI 835 After the Battle of Scone in which Dursken was slain and his Picts dispersed, King Kenneth I of Scotland awarded a Pict wood-and-wattle strongpoint overlooking the River Forth and the south shore of the entrance to the North Sea inlet known as the Firth of Forth that had been seized and burned by Kenneth Macalpin to a Scots captain named Bar.1 This strongpoint would become known in Gaelic as Dun Bar, or “the tower or fortress of Bar on the hill.” The first person to employ Dunbar as a family name was the Gospatric I who would during the 12th Century rebuild this fortification as a stone castle.

  • The Kingship of David II (1329-71)
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Stirling Online Research Repository 1 The Kingship of David II (1329-71) Although he was an infant, and English sources would jibe that he soiled the coronation altar, David Bruce was the first king of Scots to receive full coronation and anointment. As such, his installation at Scone abbey on 24 November 1331 was another triumph for his father.1 The terms of the 1328 peace had stipulated that Edward III’s regime should help secure from Avignon both the lifting of Robert I’s excommunication and this parity of rite with the monarchies of England and France. David’s coronation must, then, have blended newly-borrowed traditions with established Scottish inaugural forms: it probably merged the introduction of the boy-king and the carrying of orb, sceptre and sword by the incumbents of ancient lines of earls, then unction and the taking of oaths to common law and church followed by a sermon by the new bishop of St Andrews, the recitation of royal genealogy in Gaelic and general homage, fealty and knighting of subjects alongside the king.2 Yet this display must also have been designed to reinforce the territorial claims of authority of the Bruce house in the presence of its allies and in-laws from the north, west and south-west of Scotland as well as the established Lowland political community. Finally, it was in part an impressive riposte to Edward II’s failed attempts to persuade the papacy of his claim for England’s kings to be anointed with the holy oil of Becket.3 1 Chronica Monasterii de Melsa, ed.

  • N Nechtain, Fortriu and the Geography of the Picts
    The Scottish Historical Review, Volume LXXXV, 2: No. 220:October 2006, 182–201 ALEX WOOLF Dún Nechtain, Fortriu and the Geography of the Picts ABSTRACT In the nineteenth century the Pictish kingdom of Fortriu and the site of the Battle of Nechtansmere were located by scholars in Menteith and Strathearn and at Dunnichen in Forfarshire respectively. These identifica- tions have largely gone unchallenged. The purpose of this article is to review the evidence for these locations and to suggest that there is in fact unambiguous evidence that Fortriu lay north of the Mounth on the shores of the Moray Firth and that a case can be made that Nechtansmere was fought in Badenoch. Fortriu has long been recognised as the core terri- tory of Pictavia and its re-location in the North has profound implications for our understanding of the course of early Scottish History. In this paper I shall be suggesting two revisions to the way we think about the geography of northern Britain in the early middle ages. The first concerns the location of the Battle of Dún Nechtain, fought between Ecgfrith of Northumbria and the Picts in 685. The second concerns the location of the Pictish province or kingdom of Fortriu. Neither sugges- tion is entirely dependent upon the other so the reader may wish to accept one without the other. They are presented together because they each point to the same conclusion: that the North was more significant in Pictish history than has previously been supposed.1 Dún Nechtain, 685 In the year of our Lord 684 Ecgfrith, king of the Northumbrians, sent an army to Ireland under his dux Berht, who wretchedly devastated a harmless race that had always been most friendly to the English, and his hostile bands spared neither churches nor monasteries.

  • The Private and Public Religion of David II of Scotland, 1329-71
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Stirling Online Research Repository Christian Days and Knights: The Religious Devotions and Court of 1 David II of Scotland, 1329-71. Michael Penman Abstract This article surveys the development of the religious devotions and court life of David II of Scotland (1329- 71). Using contemporary government and chronicle sources it discusses David’s favour to a wide range of chivalric and pious causes, many with special personal resonance for the second Bruce king. This patronage attracted widespread support for his kingship after 1357. However, such interests also had political motivation for David, namely his agenda of securing a peace deal with Edward III of England and overawing his Scottish magnate opponents. His political circumstances meant that his legacy of chivalric and religious patronage were obscured after his early death. Accepted for publication in Historical Research by Wiley-Blackwell. Edward III (1327-77) was celebrated by late medieval writers as a king in the biblical style: as an exemplar of Christian virtue, a warrior and generous patron of the church, founder of several royal chapels and of the knights’ Order of St George. Similarly, Philip VI of France (1328-50) received praise for the time and energy he dedicated to attempting to organise a Pan-European crusade to recover the Holy Land, attracting hundreds of European knights, Counts, Princes and lesser kings to his realm in the 1330s. Meanwhile, Robert I of Scotland (1306-29)

  • Royal Piety in Thirteenth-Century Scotland
    Page 1 of 26 Royal Piety in thirteenth-century Scotland: the religion and religiosity of Alexander II (1214-49) and Alexander III (1249-86) Michael Penman (University of Stirling) Introduction It is perhaps inevitable that both the public and personal piety of Scotland’s thirteenth- century kings should appear, at first, unremarkable in contrast to that of the long-reigning Henry III of England and Louis IX of France. Henry’s consuming spiritual and material investment at Westminster Abbey in the cult of his ancestor, Edward the Confessor, and, from 1247, the associated veneration at that house of a Holy Blood relic, were but the most outward signs of a deep personal faith wedded tightly to Plantagenet political ends. The studies of David Carpenter, Paul Binski, Nicholas Vincent, Sarah Dixon-Smith and others have revealed in Henry a commitment to a wide, varied and costly round of religious building as well as daily and annual observances through masses, alms-giving and ritual commemoration.1 Many of these practices were continued by Henry’s son: as Michael Prestwich has illustrated, Edward I’s rule can also be shown to reflect a strong personal as well as heavily politicised faith.2 Nonetheless, the contemporary and historical reputations of both these English monarchs have always struggled to compete with that of the ‘most Christian’ French king. Louis was a charismatic religious exemplar, canonised in 1297, but 1 P. Binski, Westminster Abbey and the Plantagenets: Kingship and the Representation of Power, 1200-1400 (London, 1995); D.A.
