Alba ( pronounced Al-a-pah) is the ancient and modern Gaelic name for Scotland. Originally it was the name given to the kingdoms of the Picts and the Scots (Pictavia and Dalriada), north of the riversForth and Clyde unified by Kenneth Mac Alpin. As time passed that kingdom incorporated others to the south, until the modern borders were reached.
