This here be the Count Dankula in question, he also produces a series called 'Absolute Mad Lads', talking about historic figures from times past that in some way shaped history, here he highlights Rob Roy of Scotland, an outlaw who later eventually came to be seen as a folk hero, if you watch to the end, you'll know exactly what I meant from 17 years ago ~ https://youtu.be/q5KILuHhFDw?si=mqeqVBtxNAKXRG-B

I see now how the Duke of Argyll gained that rep from Guthrie lol ~

Yes, as the Scottish Picts were more advanced than let on, the one definining cultural archeology in that context that was characteristically ancient Scottish only and never found anywhere else was the 'Broch' - a large fortified tall tower structure built in a centrifugal fashion like a roundhouse that contained everything needed from blacksmith forgers, stables for horses and large open space grounds for outhouse stalls etc. So if you saw a Broch anywhere, you would know a Scot likely lived there or that Picts/Scots were there at one point in time.

But well after this, it all started once upon a time on the braes o' killiecrankie, by Viscount of Dundee - John Graham of Claverhouse, as attested in poetic form ~

But, of course, a silver tongue is not always a prerequisite for produced results lo ~

Though Benbecula may not have been ideal, for obvious reasons at that time ~

@Ulysses P.1 : Actually there did come distinctions such as the Gallowglass - they became known as 'Red shanks', these were hired Scottish mercenaries serving in Ireland (likely the North who identified loyally to Scotland based on the historic connection Ulster has had with Scotland, it led to terms overtime such as GallGlass (foreign Gaels), essentually they were looking at them in terms of the principle of 'Jus Soli' (of the Soil) as well as the more objective 'Jus Sanguinis' (Right of blood).
Some might even say that Donald Trump is really a 'Second Generation immigrant', as he doesn't really have US American ancestry, even though the USA uses 'Jus Soli' principles.

P.2: People like Donald Trump would certainly fit more in the latter camp, as he the direct son of a Scot, so he is unique even in America compared to the average American that claims to have Scotfish ancestors, because he is only one degree from Scotland via his mother, while the average American is not only 4,000 miles removed but would have to go back over 400 years to find the first Scottish ancestor they may have.

Though of course, the global population was much smaller then as a whole compared to nowadays (there wasn't even 1 billion people in existence until as recent as around 1804). Donald Trump's mother - Mary Anne Macleod often still travelled back to Scotland as he was growing up, so between Scotland and New York was a more common arrangement.

Side note: Trump's Scottish name - 'Donald' means 'ruler of the world' in Scotland.
