The Cultural Heritage of the Scottish Highlands
Highlanders are a type of Scottish people who live in the Highlands, which is the northern and western part of Scotland. The term "Highlander" can refer to anyone who lives in the Highlands, but it is often used specifically to refer to the Gaelic-speaking Scots who have traditionally lived there.
The Highlands are known for their rugged landscape, including mountains, lochs (lakes), and heather-covered moors. The people who live there have a distinct culture and heritage, with their own language, music, and traditions. Many Highlanders are proud of their Scottish identity and wear traditional clothing, such as kilts and tartan, to express their heritage.
Highlanders have a long history in Scotland, dating back to the ancient Celtic tribes who first settled in the region. Over the centuries, they have been influenced by various cultures, including the Vikings, the Normans, and the Lowland Scots. Today, Highlanders continue to celebrate their heritage and traditions, and many still speak Gaelic as their first language.
