The Extracta ex Cronicis Scocie records that "Sumerlendus regulus Ergadie" rebelled against King Malcolm for 12 years, landed at Renfrew from Ireland, and was killed "et filium suum Gillecolanem", among passages dealing with events in 1164. The Chronicle of Melrose records that Somerled Lord of Argyll landed at Renfrew in 1164, after 12 years of rebellion against Malcolm IV King of Scotland, with a large army from Ireland but was defeated and killed with his son.

He acquired control of the Western Isles and assumed the title "King of the Isles". Balfour Paul says that the first reference to Somerled records him as living in the district of Morven with his father Gillebride, but he does not cite the precise source. The title "Lord of the Isles" was later one which was vested in the first-born son of the king of Scotland. Although Angus the fourth Lord was the first to acknowledge the subjection of the Isles to the kings of Scotland, no Scottish peerage over the region was created until 1476. His son Reginald was the first whose title "Lord of the Isles" is attested in a contemporary document. Somerled, a Celtic chief, acquired the Western Isles in the mid-1100s and assumed the title “King of the Isles”.
