Treaty of PerthFrom Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Treaty of Perth, signed 2 July 1266, ended military

conflict between Magnus VI of Norway and Alexander

III of Scotland over the sovereignty of the Hebrides and

the Isle of Man.[2]

The Hebrides and the Isle of Man had become

Norwegian territory during centuries when both Scotland

and Norway were still forming themselves as coherent

nation-states, and Norwegian control had been formalised

in 1098, when Edgar of Scotland signed theislands over

to Magnus III of Norway. In Norwegian terms, the

islands were the Sudreys, meaning Southern Isles.

The Treaty was agreed three years after the Battle ofLargs in 1263. Michael Lynch has compared the treaty's

importance with that of the Treaty of York of 1237.[3]

The Treaty of York defined a border between Scotland

and England which is almost identical to the modern

border.

Largs is often claimed as a great Scottish victory, but the

Norwegian forces, led by King Hkon IV, were not fully

committed to battle and the result was inconclusive.

Hkon had planned to renewmilitary action thefollowingsummer, but he died in Orkney during the winter. His

successor, King Magnus VI, sued for peace and secured

the Treaty of Perth.

In the treaty Norway recognised Scottish sovereignty

over the disputed territories in return for a lump sum of

4,000 marks and an annuity of 100 marks. The annuity

was paid during subsequent decades. Scotland also

confirmed Norwegian sovereignty over Shetland and

Orkney.
