Clan Ewen is
defined as an armigerous clan. This means that it is a clan without a
chief, and is officially led by its armigers.
This page shows examples of some of the arms granted by Lyon Court to
members of the clan.

Arms
of MacEwan of Muckley.
Muckley apparently claimed descent from Ewen MacDougall, King of the
Isles, Chief of Clan Dougall, and the lion here is derived from the
arms of MacDougall.

Arms
of MacEwan of Glenboig,
1796.
Usually in Scottish heraldry, all armigers of the same surname bear
related coats of arms, but Glenboig is quite unlike any others within
the clan.
Motto: Pervicax Recti |
 |
Arms
of McEwen of Marchmont and Bardrochat.
These arms are clearly related to the earlier arms of MacEwan of
Muckley.
Motto: Reviresco |
 |
Arms
of Ewing, 1566.
These are the arms recorded for the name Ewing in the Workman Armorial.
This armorial is dated 1566, making this by far the earliest grant of
arms within the clan.
Motto: Audaciter |
