EspañolDONNCHAD I, EARL OF FIFE
Mormaer 'Donnchad I' , 1133 – 1154, anglicized as ''Duncan'' or ''Dunecan'', was the first Gaelic magnate to have his territory regranted to him by feudal charter, by David I in 1136. Donnchad I, as head of the native Scottish nobility, had the job of introducing and conducting King Máel Coluim IV around the Kingdom upon the accession of the latter, who was still young, but died soon after. In 1152, on the death of Scottish King David I's son Henry of Scotland, Donnchad I had escorted Máel Coluim IV, introducing him as the royal heir.[1]
He fathered his successor, Mormaer Donnchad II.
