Christopher StJohn
Kenneth McAlpin was King of the Scots in the western territory of Dalriada. He was one of several contenders for the throne of the Picts in the North. Legend has it that after a series of victories by his army, McAlpin invited the heads of seven Pictish Royal houses to Scone, half mile outside Perth, to discuss his claim-and slaughtered them as they dined. One account suggests that the Scots had booby trapped the benches occupied by Picts, who were dropped into pits sown with deadly blades. McAlpin's Treason resulted in a united Scotia.
