Historical Context
The Tait clan is a significant lineage in Scottish history, originating from the ancient kingdom of Galloway. The name "Tait" is believed to derive from the Old Norse word "teitr," meaning "cheerful." The Venerable Bede even mentioned a Tate, a nickname for Ethelberga, the daughter of Ethelbert, king of Kent. Known for their fierce warriors and influential leaders, the Tait clan played pivotal roles in medieval Scottish conflicts. With a deep connection to the land and nature, the Tait legacy continues today, as members worldwide proudly uphold their heritage, with the Tait Tartan serving as a vital symbol of their pride and cultural identity.
