Máel Coluim II, king of Alba, died at Glamis, Angus, #OTD in 1034. He and Owain the Bald, king of Strat Clut (Strathclyde), defeated a Northumbrian army at the Battle of Carham in 1018. This gave Máel Coluim control of land down to the Tweed.
Nov 1: Feast of All Saints (All Hallows). Ecgberht, the first archbishop of York (†766), brought the feast to England, where it is found as a marginal addition to the Martyrology of Bede.
