A Good Kilt for Native Americans?

[fluter]

On a slightly different note, I was interested in some of the suggestions Todd put forward as other tartans that would have some level of connection to one or more of the Native American nations. In particular, I've now put a Hudson Bay kilt on the list.

KC you mentioned New Mexico... If you have a connection there yourself, there's already an official state tartan. It has red and yellow stripes that echo the sun symbol from the flag.

Just trying to help!

I actually do have a connection to New Mexico. I've looked at both the official tartan and the "Land of Enchantment" tartan, and the jury's still out.

Thanks!

Todd, my wife and my credit card company would like a word with you.

Oh, dear...

By-the-way, for those who might be interested in the relationship between the Scots and Native Americans, there is a very interesting new book out by historian Colin Calloway entitled White People, Indians and Highlanders: tribal peoples and colonial encounters in Scotland and America (Oxford, 2008). I am currently reading it and it is well worth the price of admission.

Todd
