1057 With the help of Siward, Earl of Northumbria, Malcolm III (nicknamed Canmore or " Big Head "), son of Duncan, recovered his father's throne, slaying Macbeth in battle at Lumphanan in Aberdeenshire.
1070 Malcolm III married the English princess Margaret (St. Margaret), who had taken refuge in Scotland from the Normans. Under the queen's influence Malcolm anglicised his court and the Celtic Church.
1092 Malcolm also made war against the Normans in support of Margaret's brother Edgar, the Aetheling or heir to the throne of England. Scotland lost Cumberland through the fortification of Carlisle by William Rufus.
1093 Malcolm III fell in battle near Alnwick. His death was followed by four years' Celtic reaction against his anglicising policy.
The Annals of Ulster for 1093 say, "Maelcolaim Mac Donnacha sovereign of Alban and Echbarda his son, slain by the Franks. His queen, viz. Margarita, died through grief before the end of (three) days."
