    Notes:

    Biography:
    Kenneth, King of the Picts (north and east Scotland) 843-858, is often thought of as the first King of Scotland but this is not the case. That title really goes to his grandson Constantine II. What is true is that he came to power after a very complicated succession and is at the head of a dynasty that led Scotland for hundreds of years. In the battle of 839 against the Vikings, the King of the Picts and all his possible successors were killed. Kenneth was one of four contenders to the throne. Sometime between 843 and 848 he defeated the last of the contenders to become the undisputed King of the Picts. During his reign the Vikings continued to make gains in the surrounding regions.

    Died:
    He died of a brain tumor.
