British History:

Malcolm I

Malcolm I (d. 954), son of Donald II, was king of ‘Scotland’, ousting the aged Constantine II in the 940s. He led a victorious army into Moray, raided northern England as far as the Tees, and in 945 won Edmund, king of Wessex's recognition that the kingdom of Strathclyde/Cumbria lay within his sphere of influence. He was killed by the men of the Mearns at Fetteresso (south of Aberdeen).
