Scottish clansmen would traditionally wear a badge depicting
the crest of their chief, in order to show their loyalty to the Clan. Clansmen consisted of both "native men," who had a direct blood
relationship with their chief, as well as any others who had sought the protection of the clan. Today, a chief can accept or deny
whom he wants to into the Clan. Most Clans will accept anyone who will offer their allegiance, in addition to the the traditional
Septs and affliliations.
Today's meaning of Tartans as the plaid cloth which color and design despicts a Scottish Clan comes from
the 1800s. Highlanders loved tartans so much that they were identified with it, and upon the visit from King George IV in 1822, the
clans were invited to greet their King in "their proper clan tartan." Most did not have a clan tartan, and many were created or renamed
for that occasion. From this point on, the idea was established that in order to even be a proper tartan, it had to be a named tartan,
a clan tartan.
