King Kenneth Dubh – Black King of Scotland
Black Scott Sculpture - Scotland
A curious aspect of the early history of Scotland concerns various stories around Kenneth. King Kenneth was also known as ‘Kenneth the Niger’ or Kenneth Dubh, a surname which means ‘the black man’.
It is a matter of history that many seafaring warriors were North African, travelled via Iberia into Europe, and joined in many cultures and held power and position. Niger Val Dubh lived and reigned over certain black divisions in Scotland, and some histories state that a race known as ‘the sons of the blacks’ succeeded him. (e.g. see JA Rogers, Sex and Race).
Kenneth III was king of Scotland from 997 to 1005. He was the son of King Dubh (Dub mac Mail Choluim – 962-967), fourth cousin of the previous king Constantine III, and first cousin of his successor Malcolm II. Kenneth was the last king of Scotland to succeed to the throne through the tanistry system, whereby the succession was shared between two family lines and the dying king named his successor from the other family line. This system led to constant struggle between the ruling families and was abandoned. Kenneth and his son Giric were both killed at Monzievaird, Tayside in 1005.
His first cousin Malcolm succeeded him and abolished the tanistry system by killing all of his male descendants. However Kenneth had a granddaughter, Gruoch, via his daughter Boite, whose first husband was Gillacomgain. They had a son called Lulach. She then married King Macbeth I of Scotland (becoming Lady Macbeth). On the death of Macbeth her son via her first marriage, Kenneth III’s great grandson, succeeded to the throne, to become King Lulach of Scotland. According to this history, the blood of Kenneth flows through the royal houses of Scotland.
This story captures a curious fact about the Gaels from Gallicia – some were dark and have left many traces in Irish, Welsh and Scots clans.

Dubh doesn’t mean black man, you fool. It just means black, and that refers to either his accusations of witchcraft or his black hair. There were never any Africans in Scotland or Britannia in general. There were no black divisions of clans.
When people say black or brown when referring to the Celts or Germanics, it meant their hair.
There weren’t any African roots to the clans. How DARE you try and steal our Celtic heritage, you afrocentric moron?
Dear wrath,
I just traced my lineage to Orcadian through DNA. Which means some of my ancestors were from Scotland. I am an Afro-Euro American (not MULATO) Explain that. DNA doesn’t lie. There has been no one in 3 generations that anyone knows in my family from Orkney. No one wants to steal anyone’s heritage but at the same time, not all of the truth has been told. I am a part of the Celtic heritage like it or not. I found this info by accident while conducting research. I was just trying to make some sense of things, and this knowledge of King Kenneth would not be completely far fetched knowing my Celtic background. I am turned off by all of the racist rants on both sides. If you study science and put your bias racist ignorance behind, science has proven that the human genome came from Africa. Not my words, this is science. The reason why you don’t know about black contributions to the world is because of your Eurocentrism. I have found that a great majority of blacks do not want to identity with their European heritage. I just want to know the truth what ever it might be.
Wow Wrath! that is an incredibily ignorant statement, but would we expect more! How is that stealing your heritage? People need to open their eyes to the truth and embrace it.
first of all your wrath is weak wrath.listen white people are genetic mutations of black people and thats a fact. you should respect where you came from. THE BLACK GENE. and let me make myself clear I am not a racist. actually there is only one form of racism and thats WHITE SUPREMECY. It is hard for whites to accept the truht about themselves, so you people have become the master of lies and confusion. soon all white people will be dependent on black geneology this is why for the past 20 years your wicked scientist have been storing up on black plecenta’s through planned parenthood so you can study your creator THE BLACK GENE run the world you will soon be back in your place. However dont cry young evil ones once again we will forgive you cause gods people have compassion no matter how much you trick, kill, rape, pillage, destroy, corrupt, infest with disease. why do you think white WOMEN and long for the blackman semen? because genetically your women know they need real substance. your people are so weak cant even produce without drugs and evil experiments.
hey wrath i just thought of something because you posted your horse crap on this site im gonna digrace your nasty white women when i get a chance and make at least 5 of them stay on their knee’s for hours until they beg their pimp for mercy
WOW Rath appears to have rattled a few cages! I’m paticlarly mystified as to carmi-reuben statment “the black gene running the world and non black will be put in their place” – - – - Why then is Africa not leading the world?
We people of darker complexion have led the world since the very BEGINING.
caucus asians have recently claimed they control the world. There is no comparison to the superiority of time that we the darker people can truely claim, the evidence is there and we will tell it to the world.
I would suggest you read “Kingdom of the Ark” by Lorraine Evans as well as “Ancient and Modern Britons” by David MacRitchie.
The Black Man and Woman’s blood will always run in every culture of the World, Done.
wow it’s so sad that Caucasians want to deny black people being leaders and not always slaves.Black people were everywhere in this world not just in chains
As I said, you are nothing more than afrocentric nuwabarist morons who have no evidence to back up your claims. You only wish to steal a heritage far greater than your own. Pathetic. There were no black Britons, Picts, or Gaels. Get that through your thick skulls. Black people weren’t the first race, and white people did not come from black people. They were separate genetic mutations from original man.
You self-centered idiots can’t seem to grasp that, though.
Wrath whines:
“There were no black Britons, Picts, or Gaels…”
Jahdey Responds:
Is that your wishful thinking or do you have evidence of your claim? Post me your proof of your claim, if you can.
Here is my own proof of a Black Britain, before, durning and after the fall of Roman Empire. Saint Deniol of Bangur Scotland, a 6th century Black Gaelic Welsh Monk. That was before your ancestors stole Britain. Here:

Dear Wrath,
I’ll start with ummmm…. Well Wrath, throughout HIS-story, People desperately try to paint truth messengers as being non-lucid, mentally unstable, illogical, and so self-absorbed that they can’t see things for what they really are. This is a very convenient way to quickly discard the truth and go on with one’s life.
Furthermore, when people come upon new information such as this (information they weren’t taught), they erroneously assume that they have some sort of intellectual high ground over it. They start with the assumption that their belief system is correct, and, for whatever reason, vehemently refuse to acknowledge the possibility that they may have actually been deceived all along by their belief system. And thus, when confronted with counter-evidence, they automatically reject it.
As a matter of fact, human beings are actually pompous enough to think that their status quo worldview is more rational than the truth. They neglect to factor the concept of intentional deception into their logical thought process, and thus fail to realize that the only reason why their worldview seems “rational” is because it is actually composed of a plethora of lies and distortions. So, in one of the greatest ironies ever, human beings think the lies that they are fed are reality, and that the truth, on the other hand, is crazy, unrealistic, and bizarre.
It is truly amazing how people are able to adopt one of Earth’s belief systems (whether it be a specific religion or HIS-story), walk through the proverbial door of enlightenment (or so they think), shut the door behind them, and then never look back. Worse yet, they are actually proud not to look back–proud of their own stubbornness.
Once human beings are exposed to the truth, their decision to ridicule it manifests so quickly, one could mistakenly think that human beings are actually robots that were programmed to do so. Thus, if people really want to point the finger at someone who does not engage in serious critical thinking, they should go to the nearest mirror and point at themselves (rather than trying to point the finger at the truth messenger).
“There is far more to this world than taught in our schools, shown in the media, or proclaimed by the church and state. Most of mankind lives in a hypnotic trance, taking to be reality what is instead a twisted simulacrum of reality, a collective dream in which values are inverted, lies are taken as truth, and tyranny is accepted as security. They enjoy their ignorance and cling tightly to the misery that gives them identity” (Thomas Cox, montalk.net).
I agree with wrath, there were other scots that were refferred to as the black or the red. Take john comyn you have a comyn that was refferred to as the red and aonther that was refferred to as the black. It is preposterous to me that there are sects of society that try and say that they were actually african that took over scotland and ruled there. Give us a break. I supposed you have all the so called evidence to prove it as well. Hmm wonder what happened there to the once powerful “black” scotland that you speak of i guess they didnt rule long . LOL You probably wont even post this message because the truth blows your theory apart. I guess we will have to wait till we are in the presence of god almighty in the end of time to aske him who is correct . The blacks and the reds were most likely refferring to thier hair color. Or do you think perhaps american indians sailed the seas and took over part of scotland and ruled as well? HA !!!
Well, according to DNA, H.G. Wells, Herodotus and Tacitus, any time the search for the origin of mankind comes up black is alway present. I know this type of information can be a game changer for anyone; however, we need to just take one step at a time. Many of us, not just blacks, were lead to believe one thing, but overtime, we have come to see that it’s not so. I’m still doing my research on all the things that have just come to light to me.
Samuel
I read somewhere that the scottish bag pipes were actually black libyans’ musical instrument. Originaly i.e……
You it’s funny how white people enjoy telling lies. That is what kept the slave master a live and well whole all the time mistreating nag killing black people…I’m sorry the original man. Well explain this…why is it when a black person and awhile person have a baby automatically the child resemble more black than white? One black drop of our blood makes you black! Our genes are stronger. Not faith it’s fact. This dose not surprise me at all. Lol some whites do know the truth and they don’t mind telling the truth….very few. I could care less who ran Scotland. Before there was a Scotland or Europe period there was only Rome and Greece and they were taught Devine knowledge by Egypt and where is Egypt? In Africa! Napoleon knew this all to well. This why he blew the nose and the lips off of every stone, picture, monument they could find. Simply because he did not want Africans to trace there history back to Egypt ( Kemet ). So called white intellectuals are entertainment to Blacks with knowledge of self. even your Jesus had hair of wool and skin of burned Brass. Lol you know this but yet you paint images of the man as white. How could that be true if your bible says this? Thank you Wrath and Samu…el. for showing us that you only read what your slave master ancestors have taught you. I have enjoyed your display of ignorance. As a matter of fact my children and I have made it a great discussion in our family den. We have enjoyed it so much we would like to invite you two over for dinner so we can be entertained by your logic slash faith. You see people these very same whites that claim liberalism are the same ones behind clothes doors will dress themselves up as Catholics hiding they’re true kkk robes. Here’s one for you..how come when melon is separated from black skin it looks. White as snow? or when we burn ourselves the melon leaves and again we have white patches or long lengths of white skin? When you burn you turn red. It kind of reminds me of burned boloney. your dan dose not Evers 6 thousand years. We have been here forever. We didn’t just live in Africa. We lived around the planet. We warned not to create you but as usual black people when giving the opportunity will disobey and that is the reason why we have suffered from hands of our very own creation. No one cares if you believe it or not. We have facts and truth now not faith. As I said before….the only thing kept the slave master from being killed is because he brained washed all of the blacks with his religion and his faith. That kept him safe at night. You see your fathers spooked us fairy tales of God And Devil. Black is bad and white is right. Lol but in truth all through history you ….your people have caused wickedness , mayhem , murder, deceit, lies and destruction on whoever they came in contact with. You can’t help it because you are the devil of the planet earth. You have no soul, rhythm or real compassion of life. The devil could never show love only his or her agenda to destroy anything beautiful. Everyone around the world hates you. Why…because of your wicked history and nature. The universe is the essence of vibration….rhythm which you posses none. You can keep your Jesus,cross..crux..white sheets..well bring the sheets we can use them in the projects. Lol
