Mull Historical & Archaeological Society were originally called simply Mull Historical Society but changed their name to underline the importance of archaeology in their work and partly to avoid confusion with Colin MacIntyre's pop creation.
Mull is an island off the west coast of Scotland – the name comes from a genealogical society on the island, who have since changed their name to the Mull Historical and Archaeological Society.
