The last Thane of Calder, John, died in 1546, leaving a daughter, Muriel, who surrendered the thaneship to her grandson John Cambell, who formed the Clan Campbell of Cawdor. Macbeth, in Shakespeare's play of the same name, becomes Thane of Cawdor early in the narrative. Shakespeare's version (and the tradition which came before it) is of extremely dubious historical authenticity. Cawdor Castle was originally named Calder and was first built by William Calder, 6th Thane of Calder. (en)
