Clan MacEwen

Dive into the captivating history of Clan MacEwen, a story of resilience, fragmentation, and cultural revival in the Scottish Highlands. In this episode of A Clan A Day Podcast, host Colin MacDonald takes us on a journey through the clan’s noble roots, tracing their lineage back to the ancient Kings of Ireland and their settlement along the scenic shores of Loch Fyne in Argyll. From their early prominence as leaders of the Barony of Otter to the dramatic loss of their ancestral seat in the 15th century, Clan MacEwen’s tale is rich with trials and triumphs. Discover the pivotal role of figures like Swene MacEwen, the clan’s last chief of Otter, whose resignation of the barony to King James I marked a turning point in their history. Learn how the clan adapted to adversity, dispersing throughout Scotland, forming alliances with clans like the Campbells and MacDougalls, and contributing significantly to Gaelic culture as renowned poets and harpers. Today, the MacEwen spirit endures, symbolized by their crest badge—a resilient oak stump with the motto “Reviresco” (I grow strong again). With the recent election of Sir John McEwen as clan commander, the MacEwens are poised for a remarkable revival, reigniting their legacy in the 21st century. Tune in to uncover the enduring story of Clan MacEwen, their cultural contributions, and their inspiring journey toward a new chapter of unity and recognition.
