minus-squareChickenLadyLovesLife@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·3 days agoThe modern skirt-like kilt only dates to the 1700s, and the association of particular patterns with clans only dates to the 1800s. Braveheart was BULLSHIT. And they didn’t paint themselves blue, either - that was the Picts.
