Native American Kilt.

[Bugbear]

Oops, Sir Robert , I had just removed the part of a post that explained my connections to the Zuni and Dine' tribes because I didn't think it was very important. Just to cover my backside, I am not in any way that I know, genetticly related to anyone in an american tribe. That being said, I do have connections to both those tribes. Hope that clears up anything.

Aye Robert,

Similarities Between Navajo Culture and Scottish Culture

Navajo Nation 26,100 square miles – Scotland 30,414 square miles

Navajo Nation population 165,00 – Scotland 5,000,000

Both cultures use a clan system

Both cultures were conquered and pillaged

Both cultures had their language banned

Both cultures had their traditional way of dress banned

Both cultures had their traditional spiritual ceremonies banned

Both cultures were removed far from their homelands

Both cultures raised sheep, spun wool and wove blankets and wool cloth

Figure that's enough similarity for a district tartan....don't know about creating things like Begay, Yazzie, and Tsinniginnie clan tartans for names. Maybe better for creating tartans for the Navajo clans like the Bitter Water, Towering House, Tobacco clans etc.

One common custom that's commonly seen is t-shirts made up to celebrate family or clan reunions. Certainly seems to set the mood for developing a tartan for that group.

But again, presumptious of a Bilagaana to do so.
