'''Dumbarton''' (''fort of the [[Briton]]s'') is an ancient town on the north bank of the [[Firth of Clyde]] in Dumbartonshire (formally [[Strathclyde]] region) in south-eastern [[Scotland]].
    
Before the [[Roman]]s it was the capital of a British ([[Celt]]ic) kingdom., and endured as “British” (rather than of the [[Picts]] or Scots) through and after the Roman occupation of [[England]]. Tradition has the 4th/5th century [[St. Patrick]] being born there. During the dark ages it expanded its control of much of south-east Scotland and became capital of the kingdom of [[Strathclyde]] before being taken over by the Scottish king [[Malcolm II]] and absorbed into a unified kingdom by [[Duncan I]] in 1034.
