Macbeth [c. 1014-August 15, 1057] won the fight by killing Young Siward. In Act 5 Scene 7, Macbeth and Young Siward ended up on the same part of the battlefield outside Dunsinane Castle. Young Siward immediately resorted to name calling and sword swinging. But he was no match for his much more experienced and skilled opponent.

Who killed Siward?

No one killed Siward. In the Shakespearean play 'Macbeth', Siward was the Earl of Northumberland and the General of the English forces. He led a 10,000 man strong army into England to help the people of Scotland end the 17-year rule of Macbeth [c. 1014-August 15, 1057]. He was still alive at the end of the play. He was mortal, and therefore died at some time. But his death didn't happen during the confines of the Shakespearean play. But Siward had a son who was called Young Siward. In Act 5 Scene 7, Young Siward ended up on the same part of the battlefield outside Dunsinane Castle as Macbeth. He started calling names and swinging his sword around. He ended up in a sword fight with Macbeth, and lost quickly but valiantly.


Who attempted and failed to kill Macbeth?

The character of Young Siward attempts to kill Macbeth in the final battle at Dunsinane Castle; he and Macbeth fight in Act V Scene 7. However, Macbeth prevails because, as he says to Young Siward's corpse after having just slain him, "Thou wast born of woman" (V.7.11), and, of course, as the witches' prophecy went, "none of woman born / Shall harm Macbeth" (IV.1.102-103).

Who was the the first person defeated by Macbeth in the battle?

Macbeth is in a couple of battles. In Act 1 Scene 2 he defeated a number of people before facing Macdonwald and slicing him from the nave to the chops. In Act V we actually see him fighting people, and the first person we see him fight is Young Siward, who he kills. The next person we see him fight is Macduff, who kills him. So we only actually see one person defeated by Macbeth, Young Siward. We can guess that he defeated a whole bunch before him, but we don't know their names.

Who stays faithful to Macbeth?

On the face of it, nobody. In the last scene of the play, Macbeth compares himself to a bear at a bearbaiting, who muct fight off all of the dogs all by himself without any help. The only people we see fighting are Macbeth, young Siward and Macduff; the only casualty that is reported is young Siward, killed by Macbeth. But this is a very unlikely scenario. There were probably troops that stayed loyal to Macbeth. Seyton seems to be faithful to him the last time we see him, in Act V Scene 5.

According to the Shakespearean play, Macbeth [d. August 15, 1057] was beheaded. He lost his life during a sword fight with Macduff. Macduff mortally wounded Macbeth. He then cut off his head to show to the combined English and Scottish forces under the subsequent King Malcolm III [d. November 13, 1093]. Additionally, the Thane of Cawdor may have been beheaded. He was convicted of treachery to his king and his country. The punishment was execution. The means was unspecified. So it may have been by hanging, or by beheading.
