Douglas, Sir Archibald (
c.1296–1333). Regent of Scotland. Archibald Douglas was younger brother of Sir James
Douglas, the staunch supporter of Robert Bruce. After Bruce's death they stood by his young son, David II. In December 1332 at Annan, Archibald Douglas routed Edward
Balliol, who had claimed the Scottish throne, and in March 1333 he was appointed regent or guardian, after Sir Andrew
Moray had been captured. Edward III of England then besieged Berwick and Douglas marched to relieve it. In July 1333 at
Halidon Hill, the English were victorious and Douglas killed.
