Historical Significance
The John Telfer Dunbar (Commemorative) Ancient Tartan has deep roots in Scottish history, originating from the Highlands where clan culture flourished. Tartan patterns historically represent specific Scottish clans, with this particular tartan linked to the Dunbar family, recognized for their prominence during the Middle Ages. The Dunbars were influential figures, particularly in the 14th century when they played significant roles in local governance and military endeavors. The use of tartan as a symbol of familial and regional identity solidified during the 18th century, notably after the Jacobite risings, which romanticized Scottish heritage.
