Máel Coluim I's expedition is the first time we here of Albanian-Moravian polarization - are these the right adjectives? Albanian v Alban? --Rumping 11:51, 29 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

Absolutely. De Situ Albanie has nothing to do with Balkans or the Caucasus, and Andreas de Moravia was not from the present-day Czech Republic. Compare Galicia and Iberia, only Albania and Moravia overwhelmingly refer to Albania and Moravia. Alban is even more ambiguous. Angus McLellan (Talk) 12:01, 29 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

The assertion that Moray was a strong support for the Robert I during the Wars of Independence is not supported enough historically. Bruce tried to attack Elgin twice but was repelled. Moray was more allied to the Comyn's, and vast swathes of the area, both in historic and current boundaries, were subjected to the destruction. The Bishop of Moray's - David Murray - support for Bruce was strong, yes, but his support did not extend across his see (SEE GWS BARROW'S "ROBERT BRUCE") — Preceding unsigned comment added by 131.111.220.6 (talk) 21:57, 20 April 2012 (UTC)Reply

In the reign of Alexander III, 1249-1286 we have preferences to "Argyll pertaining to Moray", "Argyll pertaining to Scotia" and another portion belonging to Ross. Also "In 1324 there was a definition of the bounds of the earldom of Moray as granted to Thomas Randolph. In the west this refers to the 'lands of Locharkaig and Glengarry and Glenelg, then by the march of Glenelg to the sea towards the west, and by the sea to the bounds of North Argyll which belongs to the Earl of Ross: and so by those marches to the marches of Ross and by the marches of Ross to the water of Forne [Beauly] and thence to the sea' (Moray Reg. 342)." — Preceding unsigned comment added by 147.1.235.114 (talk) 23:04, 19 October 2018 (UTC)Reply

Geoffrey of Monmouth describes a lake identifiable as Loch Lommond as being in Mureif (Moray).

It also seems the power of the Morays as they battle the Scots was to be found to the west of Morayshire.

The rulers of Moray were, per Lulach's pedigree, of Cinel Baedain. Morven was the homeland of Cinel Baedain. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 147.1.235.121 (talk) 21:25, 14 October 2021 (UTC)Reply
