In the play 'Macbeth', King Duncan I [d. August 14, 1040] had two sons. Donalbain, who became the subsequent King Donald III [d. 1099]. undoubtedly was the younger son. Malcolm, who became the subsequent King Malcolm III [d. November 13, 1093], undoubtedly was the elder. The King conferred the title of Prince of Cumberland on Malcolm, whom he designated as his heir.
