Notes - The northern Picts were purely gaelic in race and languages. Both nations prided themselves on their dexcent from Cruithne, and broken up as they were into tribes and septs, they acknowledged a common origin but little in common. They each had a tribe and a great tribe and a Ri or King over provinces. Such was the kingdom of the Picts. The capital of the kingdom was settled in Scone and here their kings were crowned sitting on the block of red sandstone which now supports the Coronation Chair in Westminster Abbey. Christianity entered northern Scotland between the years 556 and 586 and came in the form of Columba. He crossed over from Ireland and took two years to reach the Picts. After some difficulty Columba converted Brude, son ofMalcolm, nominally at least, by having christianity declared the state religion. Moray owes it christianity to St Columba and it would seem reasonable that he become the Patron Saint of the Province, but this he never became.
