 One tradition of the Maclachlan lairds was thought to date from the era of the Crusades . The tradition was that the laird of Strathlachlan ( Maclachlan of Strathlachlan ) and the laird of <unk> ( Campbell of <unk> ) would attend the funerals of each other and " lay his neighbour 's head in the grave " . This tradition was thought to originate from the Crusades because , " it is said the heads of these two families went together to the war , and each solemnly engaged with the other to lay him in his family burying @-@ place if he should fall in battle " .
