List of Scottish clans

The following is a list of Scottish clans (with and without chiefs) – including, when known, their heraldic crest badges, tartans, mottoes, and other information.Women may wear a crest badge as a brooch to pin a sash of their clan tartan at the right shoulder of their gown or blouse.However, much like clan tartans, Scottish crest badges do not have a long history, and owe much to Victorian era romanticism, and the dress of the Highland regiments.[185] or 'Sweet Danger'[186] Plant badge: pine (Scots fir), or cranberry[37] Seat: Ardencaple Castle, Argyll & Bute Motto: Touch not a catt bot a targe[187] Plant badge: boxwood, or red whortleberry[37] Motto: Per mare per terras[188] [Latin, 'By sea, by land'][188] Plant badge: common heath (Scots heather)[37] Motto: My hope is constant in thee[189] Plant badge: common heath (Scots heather)[37] Plant badge: common heath (Scots heather), or white heather[37] Motto: Per mare per terras[190] [Latin, 'By sea, by land'][190] Motto: Cragan an fhithich[191] [Scottish Gaelic, 'The rock of the raven'][191] Plant badge: common heath (Scots heather)[37] Motto: Buaidh no bas[192] [Scottish Gaelic, 'To conquer or die'][192] Plant badge: bell heather[37] Motto: Vincere vel mori[194] [Latin, 'To conquer or die'][193] Motto: Timor Dei [Latin, 'Fear God']Eagal Dhè [Scottish Gaelic, 'Fear of God'] Motto: Deus juvat[195] [Latin, 'God assists'][195] Plant badge: boxwood, or red whortleberry[37] Motto: Reviresco[196] [Latin, 'I grow strong again'][196] Motto: This I'll defend[198] Plant badge: cranberry, or cloudberry[37] Motto: Pro rege[199] [Latin, 'For the king'][199] Plant badge: pine (Scots fir), oak, or crowberry[37] Motto: Touch not this cat[200] Plant badge: boxwood, or red whortleberry[37] Motto: Ghift Dhe agus an righ [Scottish Gaelic, 'By the grace of God and king'][203] Plant badge: holly[37] Motto: Per ardua[205] [Latin, 'Through difficulties'][205] Plant badge: common heath (Scots heather),[37] or white Heather Seat: Glenoe, Argyll and Bute Motto: Nunquam obliviscar[206] [Latin, 'I will never forget'][206] Motto: Manu forti[207] [Latin, 'With a strong hand'][207] Plant badge: great bulrush,[37] or broom[104] Motto: Luceo non uro[208] [Latin, 'I shine not burn'][208] Plant badge: variegated holly, or deer's grass (heath club rush)[37] Seat: Castle Leod, Ross-shire Innes of Learney claimed that heath club rush (deer's grass) may be confused with club moss (staghorn moss).Even if it is a confusion, both deer's grass and staghorn moss likely refer to caberfeidh ('deer's antlers') in the Mackenzie chiefly arms.
