Battle of Tarbat
The Battle of Tarbat was a Scottish clan battle fought in the 1480s on the Tarbat peninsula, in Easter Ross. The Clan Ross cornered a raiding party of Clan Mackay near the village of Portmahomack and put many of them to the sword. The survivors sought sanctuary in the nearby church but the Rosses set fire to it, killing all inside. The Mackays took revenge for this outrage in the subsequent Battle of Aldy Charrish.
It should not be confused with the Battle of Tarbat Ness in the 11th century, when Thorfinn the Mighty defeated "Karl Hundason", possibly a Viking name for Macbeth.
==Background==
The second half of the 15th century had seen a series of raids by the Mackays of Strathnaver on the Rosses of Balnagown. Finally the Rosses gathered their forces to attack the invaders who were led by Angus Roy Mackay of Strathnaver,〔 son of Neil "Bass" Mackay.
The exact date of the battle is uncertain, other than it happened before the Battle of Aldy Charrish, which documentary evidence dates to either July 1487 or June 1486.〔See Battle of Aldy Charrish article for a discussion of its date.〕 The date most commonly cited for events at Tarbat is 1486, but all that can be said is that it was probably some time in the 1480s.〔Carver (2008) describes it as an "incident of the 1480s".〕
