The MacLeod Clan
The origins of the MacLeod Clan are shrouded in mystery but it is fairly certain that its Chiefs are of Norse origin and that Leod was the younger son of Olaf the Black, one of the last Norse Kings. He is believed to have inherited the Islands of Lewis, Harris and part of Skye. Dunvegan, on Skye, was and still is, the seat of the MacLeod Chief.
