	Caledonian Confederacy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Caledonian Confederacy is a name given by historians to a group of disparate tribes inhabiting the Scottish Highlands at the time of the Roman occupation of Britain.
		By 210 however, the Caledonians had revolted and formed an alliance with the Maeatae.
		The Caledonian Confederacy did not include the broch building peoples of the far north of Scotland who appear to have been in conflict with the Caledonians and probably more sympathetic to Rome.

	Calgacus - Iridis Encyclopedia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		Calgacus was the Romanised name of the leader of the Caledonian Confederacy who fought the Roman army of Gnaeus Julius Agricola at the Battle of Mons Graupius in AD 83 or 84.
		Calgacus is not mentioned during or after the battle and he is not named as one of the hostages Agricola took with him after putting the Caledonians to flight.
		It is therefore unclear as to whether he was killed in combat or escaped to play a part in the uneasy peace of succeeding decades.

		But the strength of the Roman government could not always guard the maritime province against the pirates of Germany; the independent and divided states were exposed to their attacks; and the Saxons might sometimes join the Scots and the Picts, in a tacit, or express, confederacy of rapine and destruction.
		Hengist and Horsa, as they ranged along the Eastern coast with three ships, were engaged, by the promise of an ample stipend, to embrace the defence of Britain; and their intrepid valor soon delivered the country from the Caledonian invaders.
		The Isle of Thanet, a secure and fertile district, was allotted for the residence of these German auxiliaries, and they were supplied, according to the treaty, with a plentiful allowance of clothing and provisions.

		He then ordered his fleet to sail around the north of Scotland to establish that Britain is an island and to receive the surrender of the Orcadians.
		Agricola was recalled to Rome by Domitian and seemingly replaced with a series of ineffectual successors who were unable or unwilling to further subdue the far north.
		Roman troops however penetrated far into the north of modern Scotland several more times, most notably in 209 when the emperor Septimus Severus defeated the Caledonian Confederacy and accepted their surrender.

	Cloning saves oldest tree in Europe, where Pilate played as a boy (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		The position of the tree, in a churchyard in the Perthshire village of Fortingall, is yards from the site of a former Roman encampment where, according to local legend, Pontius Pilate is said to have been born while his father, a Roman envoy, was visiting a local king.
		The legend suggests that Pilate's father was in the area on behalf of Caesar Augustus in about 10BC, to persuade Metallanus or Mainus, the head of a Caledonian tribal confederacy, to pay tribute to Rome.
		During the months of waiting, a relationship with a local woman led to the birth of a son, who was given his father's name, brought back to the central Italian region of Samnium and, when he grew up, made a free man and given a pilateus, the felt cap worn by a freed slave.

		When Scottish women formed their own ethnic organization, the Daughters of Scotia, in 1898, they reflected the same concerns that animated the national Daughters of the American Revolution (formed in 1890) and the regional United Daughters of the Confederacy (formed in 1894).
		By the turn of the century Caledonian societies, Burns clubs, and St. Andrew’s societies had so proliferated that hardly any American or Canadian city of size lacked one.
		One author claimed that there were more Scottish-American organizations than their Welsh-, Irish-, or English-American counterparts.

		Not only did the Scots provide a vast proportion of the soldiers and miners and ship’s engineers of the system (I have seen it argued that Scotty on Star Trek is a tribute to this grand tradition), but several colonies bore a distinctly Caledonian stamp.
		Even today a visitor to New Zealand or Canada is bound to notice the influence of Scottish architecture and of the Scottish educational and religious heritage; and in the Cameron Highlands of Malaysia, and the city of Blantyre, in Malawi, the imprint of Scotland is to be felt in numerous distinctive ways.
