To provide insight into the treason suspects possible motives, is Dunsinane Academy philosopher Iain MacGowan, who theorizes several reasons for betrayal. “It is the common nature of those with titles and holdings to want to protect what they own, and there is no denying that Norway had the upper hand in this conflict, and by defecting to Norway, Cawdor likely felt his holdings would safer if he joined the stronger side.”. “Also,..” added MacGowan “The king of Norway might have offered him the reward of a better title or more land if he joined
