Amid so much tliat is mythic, uncertain, or matterof controversy, in the early history of Scotland, it may beheld as unquestionable that the Scots, from whom thecountry took its name, had their original seat in Ireland,from whence they migrated to Scotland; and that a lineof Idngs of Scottish race ruled in this country from themiddle of the ninth to the early part of the eleventhcenturies. The era of the estabhshment of this Scottishdynasty was the year 850, and it terminated, by thedeath of the last king of Scottish race, in the year 1034.
