Commentary
Stewart Baldwin: 'The name of Suthen is known only from an interlined addition to a king list contained in an early fourteenth century manuscript ["Malcolin filius Doncath xxxvij annis et viij mensibus et interfectus in Inveralden et sepultus in Dunfermelin." Regnal List "I", KKES 284 ]. Duncan has pointed out that the name "Suthen" is Gaelic. Thus, if the name is correct, it would call into question the suggestion that Suthen was a relative of Siward. ... While a close relationship between Suthen and Siward of Northumbria is plausible enough from the known evidence, such a relationship is not certain. ... John of Fordun's often unreliable history of Scotland (late fourteenth century) states that the mother of Duncan's sons Malcolm and Donald was a "consanguinia" [sic] of earl Siward ["Genuit autem Duncanus, avi sui diebus, ex consanguinia Sywardi comitis, duos filios, Malcolmum Canmor, latine vero Grossum Caput, et Donaldum Bane, cui Malcolmo Cumbriæ regionem pater statim ut coronatus est donavit."]. There is no earlier authority for the statement, although it could be based on a misidentification of Edward's father Siward. There does not appear to be any justification for attempts to define a more specific relationship between Suthen and Siward.'
