The world oldest tartan ever ?
Hello there, Yesterday, I've seen a documentary on Arte (a German-French TV channel) about old mummies found in the Taklamakan Desert in China. According with there DNA, sevral mummies had celtic roots. Mors important (for us :-) they had tartan leggins and shrouds, 30 centuries before us ! The wikipedia about that : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tarim_mummies And words from the Independant : http://www.independent.co.uk/news/wo...es-413638.html
