Salvianus,
Wouldn't The ARMA be a good source, too? They specialise in reproducing the techniques and martial arts styles found in the West from different eras through intensive academic study of first-hand historical manuscripts detailing the techniques related to personal combat. They pursue this study as an element of experimental archaeology as well as for fitness and sport.


I would imagine that the folks who devote so much to learning from ancient manuscripts and tomes would probably glance at an illumination or two to learn how to wear a sword in their belt--Highland or otherwise.
