Anecdote

MALCOLM, son of DUNCAN II King of Scotland & his wife [Sibylla of Northumbria] (1031-killed in battle near Alnwick, Northumberland 13 Nov 1093[241], bur Tynemouth St Albans[242], transferred to Dunfermline Abbey, Fife[243], transferred again to Escorial, Madrid). The 12th century Cronica Regum Scottorum names "Malcolaim filii Donnchada" in one of its lists[244]. The Chronicon of Mariano Scotti records that "Moelcol…filius Donchael" succeeded Lulach in 1058[245]. The Annales Dunelmenses record that "Siwardus" put "Macbeth" to flight in 1054 and installed "Malcolmum rege" in the following year[246]. The Annals of Tigernach record that "Lulach rí Alban" was killed by "Mael-Coluimb, son of Donnchad" in 1058[247]. The Chronicle of John of Fordun records that Malcolm recaptured his kingdom with the help of "Siward Earl of Northumberland" and killed "Machabeus" 5 Dec 1056[248]. He succeeded in 1058 as MALCOLM III "Caennmor/Bighead" King of Scotland, crowned 25 Apr 1058 at Scone Abbey, Perthshire. Duncan cites sources which demonstrate that this nickname was first applied to King Malcolm III in the 13th century[249]. He suggests[250] that it was originally applied to King Malcolm IV who, he asserts, suffered from Paget's disease, involving a deformation of the bones particularly observable in the skull, and was later misapplied to King Malcolm III. King Malcolm supported the claim to the English crown of Edgar ætheling, whose sister he had married, and led plundering raids into England. Florence of Worcester records that he did homage to William I King of England at Abernethy in Aug 1072[251]. The same source records that King Malcolm invaded Northumberland in 1091, but did fealty to Willam II King of England after peace was negotiated between the two kings[252]. Florence of Worcester records that "rex Scottorum Malcolmus et primogenitus filius suus Eadwardus" were killed in battle in Northumbria "die S Bricii" [13 Nov] by the army of "Rotberti Northymbrorum comitis"[253]. William of Malmesbury records that he was killed, with his son Edward, by Morael of Bamborough, steward of Robert Mowbray Earl of Northumberland, while leading a raid into England[254]. The Annals of Ulster record that "Mael Coluim son of Donnchad, over-king of Scotland, and Edward his son, were killed by the French in Inber Alda in England"[255].
[m] [firstly] ([before 1058]) ---. The identity of the mother of King Malcolm's sons Duncan and Donald is uncertain. The absence of any reference to her in Scottish sources is best explained if her relationship with the king ended before his accession in 1058. However, this is not totally consistent with the estimated birth dates of her sons as shown below. It should be noted that King Duncan II, in his charter dated 1093, makes no reference to his mother, which implies that his father's relationship with her may have been short-lived and informal. Orkneyinga Saga records that "Ingibjorg the Earls´-Mother" (Ingibjörg Finnsdatter, widow of Thorfinn "the Black" Jarl of Orkney and Caithness, daughter of Finn Arnisson [later Jarl of Halland in Denmark]) married "Malcolm King of Scots, known as Long-neck" and that "their son was Duncan, King of Scots, father of William"[256]. There must be considerable doubt about whether this can be correct. Ingibjörg's [first] husband died in [1060/65]. King Malcolm's marriage to Queen Margaret is dated to 1070, three years after her arrival at the Scottish court. Although this provides sufficient time after the death of her first husband for the king to have married Ingebjörg, and for Ingebjörg to have died, the chronology for the birth of two sons would be tight. In addition, it is unlikely that either of these sons was born after [1065], as explained in the document SCOTLAND. If the king had really married Ingibjörg during this time, and if she had given birth to two sons, the absence of any reference to her in either Scottish or English sources is all the more surprising. It is possible that King Malcolm's marriage to Ingibjörg (if it did take place) was more Danico, implying concubinage rather than regular marriage, but this does not change the chronological difficulties. The one puzzle which remains, if the Saga is not correct, is why the author would have fabricated this detail.
m [secondly] (Dunfermline Abbey 1070) MARGARET of England, daughter of EDWARD ætheling of England & his wife Agatha --- ([in Hungary] [1046/53]-Edinburgh Castle 16 Nov 1093, bur Dunfermline Abbey, Fife, transferred to Escorial, Madrid, her head bur Jesuit College, Douai). Although Margaret's birth is often placed in [1045/46][257], a later birth would be more consistent with the "German" theory of her mother's origin (as discussed in ANGLO-SAXON KINGS). Margaret's birth as late as 1053 would still be consistent with her having given birth to four children before her daughter Edith/Matilda (later wife of Henry I King of England), whose birth is estimated to have taken place in [1079/80]. The Anglo-Saxon Chronicle records that Margaret left England with her mother in Summer 1067 and found refuge at the court of Malcolm King of Scotland[258]. Florence of Worcester records that "clitone Eadgaro et matre sua Agatha duabusque sororibus suis Margareta et Christina" left England for Scotland, in a passage which deals with events in mid-1068[259]. Florence of Worcester records that "regina Scottorum Margareta" died from grief after learning of the death of her husband and oldest son[260]. The Annals of Ulster record that "his queen Margaret…died of sorrow for him within nine days" after her husband was killed in battle[261]. She was canonised in 1250, her feast day in Scotland is 16 Nov[262].

Malcolm III d'Écosse, surnommé Malcolm Canmore (Malcolm Grosse-Tête) (Écossais Maíl Choluim mac Donnchada), né vers 1031, mort le 13 novembre 1093 à Alnwick, est roi d'Écosse de 1058 à 1093.

Il est fils de Duncan Ier (1001-1040), dit Duncan le Gracieux, roi de Strathclyde (1018-1040) et roi d'Écosse (1034-1040), et de Sybille de Huntingdon (née vers 1010).

Après l'assassinat (ou la mort au combat) de son père, le 14 août 1040[1], il ne lui succède pas, le trône étant usurpé par son cousin Macbeth Ier.

En 1054, Malcolm réussit à obtenir l'aide du roi d'Angleterre Édouard le Confesseur, qui lui prête une armée pour reconquérir son trône[2]. Le roi Macbeth est tué en 1057[3], et son successeur, Lulach Ier, en 1058[4].

Malcolm III est couronné roi d'Écosse le 25 avril 1058, en l'abbaye de Scone, dans le Perthshire. Aussitôt monté sur le trône, il renouvelle son alliance avec l'Angleterre, alliance qui est scellée par son second mariage avec la princesse Marguerite d'Angleterre, plus tard connue sous le nom de sainte Marguerite d'Écosse, petite-nièce du défunt roi Édouard le Confesseur et sœur du nouveau roi Edgar II.

Après les règnes éphémères des rois d'Angleterre Edgar II et Harold II, en 1066, il tente sans grand succès de lutter contre Guillaume le Conquérant, dont il doit reconnaître la suprématie en 1072[5]. Une nouvelle guerre, en 1093, contre un autre roi d'Angleterre, Guillaume II, se solde par une lourde défaite écossaise et par la mort de Malcolm III et de son fils Edward [6], auquel succède son frère Donald III.

Ultérieurement, quatre fils de Malcolm III deviennent à leur tour rois d'Écosse : Duncan II (de son premier lit avec Ingeborg Finndottir), Edgar Ier, Alexandre Ier et David Ier (tous trois issus du second lit avec sainte Marguerite d'Écosse).

La dépouille de Malcolm III subit quelques vicissitudes après son décès. Il est tout d'abord inhumé à Tynemouth, puis plus tard déplacé à l'abbaye de Dunfermline. Près de quatre siècles plus tard, ses restes sont transportés, à la demande du roi Philippe II d'Espagne, et pour une raison qui reste à préciser, jusqu'au palais de l'Escurial, à proximité de Madrid, où il repose toujours.
