Of course, the roman soldiers wore a longish shirt under their armor, and the effect was similar to the kilt. Then there is the Greek Evizone(sp?) Point I am trying to make here that yes, the kilt is a uniquely highland garment a short "skirt" was the norm for men in many regions over time. The fact that my Mother was from Mull, doesn't stop me from wearing the kilt with pride. I agree, Jock, that we need to keep all in the spirit of good fun.
