About this event

Who are the Scots? What is a Clan and Why are we not Celtic?

Dr. Bruce Durie.

Bruce Durie, a well-known and popular author and speaker on things Socttish, will lead us through the movement of continents, migrations, different languages, kilt-wearing and tartans, the use of different types of DNA tests - and this will interest many of our members whether 'Scots' or not because of its implications for "ethnicity"; haplogroups are discussed because these identify Y-DNA and mtDNA groups with origins as far back as at least 5000 years ago. What is a Celt? - join us and see for yourself!
