The fabric was found preserved in a peat bog and predates the Industrial Revolution.
The cloth was found in the early 1980s in Scotland’s Glen Affric valley, about 15 miles west of Loch Ness.The Scottish Tartans Authority commissioned dye analysis and radiocarbon testing of the textile to prove its age. Four initial colors–green, brown, and possibly red and yellow–were identified. The dye analysis confirmed that indigo or woad in the green fabric were both used. The analysis of the other colors was inconclusive.
Tartan experts believe that this tartan was likely an “outdoor working garment” and wouldn’t have been worn by nobility.
