Historical Significance
The Johnstone Clans Originaux Ancient Tartan pays homage to one of Scotland's most powerful Border clans, the Johnstone clan. Rising to prominence in the 16th century, they were known for their unwavering defense of their lands and strategic prowess. Their motto, 'Nunquam Non Paratus' (Never Unprepared), encapsulates their readiness to face challenges. The clan crest, featuring a winged spur, symbolizes quickness in action and swift retaliation. Throughout history, the Johnstones have played a crucial role in protecting Scotland's southern borders, and this ancient tartan embodies their enduring spirit and connection to their homeland.
