<p>219.111.198.7: </p> <hr /> <div>'''Lulach''' was the step-son of [[Macbeth]] and succeeded him on the [[Scotland|Scottish]] [[throne]]. His mother was Gruoch, grand-daughter of [[King]] [[Kenneth III]], whose first husband, Lulach's father, was Gillecomgain, the Mormaer of Moray. Lulach was born around 1032CE; he was [[crown]]ed in August 1057, after Macbeth's death, but was killed the following year. He was known as &quot;the Simple&quot; which may reflect a popular impression that he was a weak king.<br /> <br /> He had a son, Maelsnectan, who retired to a [[monastery]], and a daughter, who married a chieftain named Aedh or Eathelred, a son of [[Malcolm III|Malcolm Canmore]], and [[Earl]] of Fife. One of his sons, Dubh, succeeded him in the Earldom; a second, Malcolm, became Earl of Moray and Ross (a title also descending from [[Macbeth]] and his father Findlaech).<br /> <br /> His short reign does not appear to have generated any notable historical incident before his death and Malcolm's succession.<br /> <br /> Lulach's death marked the passin</div>
