Clan MacDougall

Buaidh no Bàs (Victory or death)

Clan MacDougall takes its name from Dougall, son of the 12th-century warlord Somerled, who inherited Argyll and a string of islands when Somerled was killed at the Battle of Renfrew in 1164. John MacDougall, Lord of Lorn, ambushed Robert the Bruce at Dalrigh in 1306 and was defeated by him at the Battle of Brander in 1308. The family's home is still Dunollie, near Oban, where the ruined castle stands above the later house.
