Archibald (bishop of Moray)

Archibald (died 1298) was a Scottish prelate best known for involvement in a dispute with the Pope.

[1] In that year he was consecrated as the successor of Simon de Gunby and Radulf of Lincoln as Bishop of Moray.

[2] Through what appears to have been a misunderstanding, Bishop Archibald confirmed the election of one Andrew de Dunn as Dean of Moray.

[3] Bishop Archibald, apparently concerned he had been placed in a state of excommunication, petitioned Pope Alexander IV and was absolved on 22 December 1255.

[5] The bishop was also involved in a dispute with Uilleam, Mormaer of Mar, which in 1268 resulted in the latter's excommunication.
