Ao contrário do que se acredita the Irish sea-raiders não eram piratas ou corsários, pois seu objetivo era o de conquistar a Irlanda e não o de pilhar e partir. Veja abaixo.

Scoti
Scoti or Scotti (Old Irish Scot, modern Scottish Gaelic Sgaothaich) was the generic name given by the Romans to Gaelic raiders from Ireland. Some of them, from the nascent Kingdom of Dál Riata, in what is now Ulster, settled in Argyll (Earra-Ghàidheal, East Gaels), where they extended Dál Riata. In time the name became applied to all the people within the regions successive generations conquered, hence the modern words Scot and Scotland. It is not believed that any Gaelic groups called themselves Scoti in ancient times, except when referring to themselves in Latin

Pirate/pirata seems Ok if it is mythical Avalon (an island?) that is being plundered.

: In the case of Irish, probably unauthorised. Land raids from the sea.

They did exist, probably not as famous as French and English, though. Please, see www.jucepa.pa.gov.br/sn_nppontos.asp. Have a good Sunday.

Vikings: sea-raiders and traders
- In AD 793, a daring raid across the North Sea on the monastery of Lindisfarne by Norse pirates heralded the start of the Viking period. Over the next two centuries swift sailing ships enabled the Vikings to extend their attacks to the undefended, coastal and riverine ports, towns and monasteries of western Europe and beyond. The name Viking came to mean sea-raider, though today it is applied to all the pagan peoples of Scandinavia who spoke dialects of Old Norse. These peoples shared a similar material culture from the late eighth to the eleventh century and comprised the Danes, Norwegians, Swedes and the inhabitants of Gotland. At first they lived in a number of small kingdoms. But, as the more aggressive Viking rulers sought to increase their wealth and power with the support of warrior elites, the smaller kingdoms were absorbed by their more powerful neighbours.www.britishmuseum.org/explore/highlights/article_index/v/vi...
