Correct. In fact, Peter and Fiona Somerset Fry in " The History of
Scotland" say "The Scots from Ireland found the Argyll lands and the
islands attractive places in which to settle. In the sixth century so
many of them came from their kingdom in northern Ireland, called
Dalriada, that their new land was also called Dalriada."

This is a good readable book on the history of Scotland, although
it deals more with various Scottish reigns and politics than daily
life.
