Campbell Of Cawdor Weathered Tartan

Historical Context

The Campbell of Cawdor Weathered Tartan represents the illustrious Clan Campbell, a powerful family in the West of Scotland, particularly in Argyllshire. Known as the race of Diarmid, they were granted the Lordship of Lochow in the 13th century. The clan’s lineage includes notable figures such as Colin Campbell of Lochow, who was knighted in 1280, and later chiefs who became Earls of Argyll. The 10th Earl even received a Dukedom from William of Orange in 1701. The clan played crucial roles in Scottish history, being involved in significant events such as the Monmouth Rebellion, which led to the beheading of the 9th Earl in 1685. Their influence extended into various high positions, including the Hereditary Lord Justice General and Admiral of the Western Coasts and Isles of Scotland.
