Norwegian Migration Period Tartan

Historical Context

The Norwegian Migration Period Tartan draws its roots from the rich tapestry of Norse culture, particularly during the 8th to 11th centuries when Vikings traversed Europe. This era was marked by exploration, trade, and the exchange of ideas and textiles. Tartan patterns symbolized heritage and identity, often associated with clans or regions. The intertwining of colors and designs reflects ancestry and social status, making tartan a vital part of cultural expression. Notable figures of this era wore variations of tartan to signify lineage and allegiance.
