Elizabeth de Burgh, as the queen consort of Robert the Bruce, played a prominent role in the political unrest between Scotland and England. However, her professional life is mostly unknown due to the limited documentation of medieval noblewomen. She encountered difficulties during the conflict, had to move for safety reasons, and was later captured as a prisoner. Elizabeth’s contribution to the political sphere of that era is still unclear, underscoring the lack of historical information on medieval women.
