Tour Scotland short 4K travel video clip of a Scotsman wearing a kilt and sporran and walking on a beach on ancestry, genealogy, history visit and trip to the West Coast of Isle of Mull, Inner Hebrides, Britain, United Kingdom. The island played a role in the Gaelic kingdom of Dál Riata and the spread of Christianity, with St. Columba establishing a monastery on nearby Iona. Later, Mull became part of the Lordship of the Isles and was then controlled by the Clan MacLean and later the Clan Campbell. The Highland Clearances significantly impacted the island's population in the 18th and 19th centuries. The Isle of Mull has probably been inhabited since shortly after the end of the last Ice Age, around 11,000 years ago. In the 6th century AD, Irish migrants invaded Mull and the surrounding coast and established the Gaelic kingdom of Dál Riata. The kingdom was divided into a number of regions, each controlled by a different kinship group. One of these, the Cenél Loairn, controlled Mull and the adjacent mainland to the east. Of interest to folks with ancestry, genealogy or Scottish Family Roots in Scotland who may wish to visit one day. #scotland #shortsvideo #scotsman #kilt #beach @tourscotland #coast
