1330 - 1688

Clan Cameron-Clan Mackintosh feud

From 1330 to 1688, the Clan Cameron and Clan Mackintosh were embroiled in an intense feud primarily centered on territorial disputes in the Scottish Highlands. The origin of their discord traces back to claims over the rich lands of Lochaber, with both clans asserting their dominance. A significant flashpoint in their rivalry was the Battle of Invernahavon in 1370, where the Camerons, aided by the Clan MacDonald, clashed fiercely with the Mackintoshes and their Clan Chattan allies. Over the centuries, these conflicts were punctuated by various attempts at truces and peace treaties, but animosities flared repeatedly, drawing in surrounding clans and reflecting the broader power struggles of the Highland region. The feud's intensity waned by the late 17th century, but its echoes lingered in the annals of Scottish history.
