  • Martin Martin (en gaélique écossais : Màrtainn MacGilleMhàrtainn, ?-1718) était un écrivain écossais, connu notamment pour son livre A Description of the Western Isles of Scotland (1703). Cet ouvrage est particulièrement fameux pour ses informations sur l'archipel Saint-Kilda. Cette description a aussi été publiée par Martin quelques années auparavant dans A Late Voyage to St Kilda (1698). Il semblerait qu'il soit issu de la classe moyenne des Highlands, les tacksmen, qui travaillaient sur les domaines des propriétaires terriens. Son frère a été tackman à Flodigarry sur l'île de Skye.
