Jacobite Tartan
Motto of the Royal
Stuart Dynasty of Scotland from James VI: Nemo me Impune (No
one attacks me with impunity)
Plant Badge:
White Rose
The Jacobites were a group of primarily Scottish people involved
in a series of rebellions during the late 17th and
18th Centuries. They believed that James VII of Scotland
and his Stuart descendants should be restored to the throne of
Scotland. These rebellions culminated on 16 April in 1746 at the
Battle of Culloden, with the Jacobites defeat by the British
Army.
The Jacobite tartan is a symbol of Scottish national
identity that has been around since at least 1707, and worn during
the Jacobite Rebellion of 1715. Scottish people who have no clan
connections often wear the Jacobite tartan. This tartan is
primarily yellow, green and white.
