Best Answer

The Picts and Scots lived in different regions of what is now Scotland during the early Middle Ages, roughly from the 5th to the 10th centuries. The Picts inhabited northern and eastern Scotland, while the Scots originally came from Ireland and settled in western Scotland. The two groups eventually merged to form the Kingdom of Alba.

the reason they.(VANISHED.)is quite simple the picts handed down power through the female side of the family and kenneth mac alpins mother was princess of picts and his father was king of dalriada scots so in time kenneth became king of both peoples so that in effect they amalgamated and the scots today are a mixture of both these people .
