Archibald Douglas (d.1333)
Sir Archibald Douglas (before 1298 – 19 July 1333) was a Scottish noble, Guardian of Scotland and military leader. He is sometimes given the epithet "Tyneman" (Old Scots:Loser), but this may be a reference to his great-nephew Archibald Douglas, 4th Earl of Douglas.

Famous quotes containing the word douglas:
“How can I live among this gentle
absolescent breed of heroes, and not weep?
Unicorns, almost,
for they are falling into two legends
in which their stupidity and chivalry
are celebrated. Each, fool and herb, will be an immortal.”
—Keith Douglas (1920–1944)
