REAL stumper... Argyll Buttons
Guys,
Here's a question I posed to a couple experts in Scotland and had them stumped. Let's see if any of the experts up here can help...
On the buttons for the PC and/or Argyll jacket, there is a rampant lion. It's pretty obviously a symbol of Scotland. However, there are ALSO a few words. In no particular order (don't know which is first and which is last):
Clann n
ar Sael
Ansram
Gracrelle
The first 2 wrap around a corner, so it MAY be "Clann Nar Sael"
Anyone have any ideas? I am TRULY stumped and have wondered what it means for a long time.
