Aka "CANMORE", called that because of the size of his head.

He became King at the time of his victory over MACBETH in 1057, remaining so until his death in 1093. Wife called "Saint Margaret" of Scotland. His widow, whom he had married in 1068 as his second wife, was Princess Margaret, daughter of Edward "The Exile". She died at Edinburgh Castle, of grief at the death of her husband, 16 NOV 1093, and was buried at Dunferline. In 1250, Margaret was declared a Saint and on 19 JUN 1259; her body was taken from the original stone coffin and placed in a shrine of pinewood set with gold and precious stones near a high alter. In Scotland, the grace cup is called SAINT MARGARET"S blessing. When Scotland became Protestant, the remains of SAINT MARGARET and her husband were carried to Spain and placed in a chapel in the Escurial built in her honor by King Philip II. Their only daughter was Matilda, wife of Henry I, of England. Malcolm III and his wife Lady Margaret had a son. Also married 1070. Called "The Third". His body was first buried at Icelmkill and later re-buried at Escural, Spain. Reigned 1057 to 1093.
