| Note | Event Memos from GEDCOM Import... Residence Máel Coluim mac Cináeda (anglicised Malcolm II) (c. 980 – 25 November 1034) was King of Scots from 1005 until his death in 1034. He was a son of Cináed mac MaÃl Coluim (Kenneth II of Scotland). Malcolm was one of several kings within the geographical boundaries of modern Scotland. His fellow kings included the king of Strathclyde, who ruled much of the south-west, various Norse-Gael kings of the western coasts and the Hebrides and, nearest and most dangerous rivals, the Kings or Mormaers of Moray. To the south, in the kingdom of England, the Earls of Bernicia and Northumbria, whose predecessors as kings of Northumbria had once ruled most of southern Scotland, still controlled large parts of the south-east. The first reliable report of Malcolm's reign is of an invasion of Bernicia, perhaps the customary crech rÃg (literally royal prey, a raid by a new king made to demonstrate prowess in war), which involved a siege of Durham. This appears to have resulted in a heavy defeat, by the Northumbrians led by Uchtred, later Earl of Bernicia, which is reported by the Annals of Ulster. A second war in Bernicia, probably in 1018, was more successful. The Battle of Carham, by the River Tweed, was a victory for the Scots led by Malcolm and the men of Strathclyde led by Eógan (Owen the Bald). By this time Earl Uchtred may have been dead, and EirÃkr Hákonarson was appointed Earl of Northumbria by his brother-in-law Canute, although his authority seems to have been limited to the south, the former kingdom of Deira, and he took no action against the Scots so far as is known. Canute, reports the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle, led an army into Scotland on his return from pilgrimage to Rome. Canute obtained rather less than previous English kings, a promise of peace and friendship rather than the promise of aid on land and sea than Edgar and others had obtained. The sources say that Malcolm was accompanied by one or two other kings, certainly Mac Bethad, and perhaps Echmarcach mac Ragnaill, King of the Isle of Man and Galloway. The Anglo-Saxon Chronicle remarks of the submission 'but he [Máel Coluim] adhered to that for only a little while'. Canute was soon occupied in Norway against Olaf Haraldsson and appears to have had no further involvement with Scotland. A daughter of Malcolm, whose name is not known, married Sigurd Hlodvisson, Earl of Orkney. Their son Thorfinn Sigurdsson was said to be five years old when Sigurd was killed on 23 April 1014 in the Battle of Clontarf. The Orkneyinga Saga says that Thorfinn was raised at Malcolm's court and was given the Mormaerdom of Caithness by his grandfather. Thorfinn, says the Heimskringla, was the ally of the king of Scots, and counted on Malcolm's support to resist the 'tyranny' of King Olaf Haraldsson of Norway. The chronology of Thorfinn's life is problematic, and he may have had a share in the Earldom of Orkney while still a child, if he was indeed only five in 1014. Whatever the exact chronology, before Malcolm's death a client of the king of Scots was in control of Caithness and Orkney, although, as with all such relationships, it is unlikely to have lasted beyond his death. As has been said, by the 1030s Malcolm's sons, if he had had any, were dead. Malcolm died in 1034, Marianus Scotus giving the date as 25 November 1034. The king lists say that he died at Glamis. Perhaps the most notable feature of Malcolm's death is the account of Marianus, matched by the silence of the Irish annals, which tells us that Duncan became king and ruled for five years and nine months. Given that his death in 1040 is described as being 'at an immature age' in the Annals of Tigernach, he must have been a young man in 1034. The absence of any opposition suggests that Malcolm had dealt thoroughly with any likely opposition in his own lifetime. |
