Campbell Of Loudon Tartan

Historical Context

The Campbell Clan of Loudon, also known as Clan Campbell of Loudoun, is a Scottish clan with origins in Ayrshire. Established in the 13th century, they gained prominence with the Lordship of Lochow. Colin Campbell of Lochow, knighted in 1280, and subsequent Earls of Argyll played significant roles in Scottish history. Notably, the 9th Earl faced execution in 1685 due to his involvement in the Monmouth Rebellion. The Campbells were influential during the medieval period and supported Robert the Bruce in the Battle of Bannockburn. The clan's name, derived from the Gaelic "Cam Beul," meaning "crooked mouth," reflects its storied past. The clan’s legacy continues to resonate within Scottish culture.
