MEDIEVAL SCOTLAND SCA LIVING HISTORY SCOTTISH CULTURE MIDDLE AGES REENACTMENT RECREATION SCOTS GAELIC ALBA
------------------------------------------------------
Albanach is a group within the Society for Creative Anachronism devoted to the study and re-creation of Scottish life between the years 503 and 1603 AD. Any topic having to do with the history, culture, or traditions of mainland Scotland or the Isles (including the Shetlands) between the arrival of the Gaels in 503 and the succession of King James VI of Scotland to the English throne in 1603 is appropriate for this list. Our goals are to share information and help eachother better recreate medieval Scottish life.

Re: Name?
Diana, Also the term *Gallowglass* might be appropriate. Here's a Wikipedia article on it: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gallowglass Hope this helps! --

Re: Braids
Diana, One of the ladies of my Shire did an article on medieval hairstyles recently. I'll search it out tonight to see if it says anything on Scottish styles

Braids
I'm unsure where I read it, but a while ago = a couple of years, I read that in medieval Scotland, women wore braids only after they were married. Does anyone
