Almost the only place they could have found safe haven was in western Scotland - which was at that time under the control of Robert the Bruce. This theory is explored in the Temple and the Lodge by Michael Baigent and Richard Leigh. And they state that the escaping the fleet landed in Argyll, helped in the battle of Bannockburn and then they continued to live in Scotland. Moreover all the Scots Templars avoided arrest, save for two who were in fact English and they were later acquitted. There is a lot more information in the aforementioned book, but some other interesting points are that the Scots Guard which was founded in 1425 and sworn to protect the French monarch was is believed to have been a Templarist organisation. Also one family who served in the Scots Guard was the Sinclair family - who built Rosslyn Chapel (Templars are also connected with the construction of the chapel). And of course then this leads onto the origins of Free Masonry and the "Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite").Andrastehttp://www.youtube.com/BNPCrusadenoreply@blogger.com
