Not one negative comment! ok then.
Both the Hittites of "Turkey-Iraq" and Phrygians of "Turkey" wore kilts around 800-600 BC (with no plaid shown). Phrygians (which can be expressed as "brygian" : high place - as in PHilip / Bilip) are illustrated with shields marked with ....X.. They have leg tattoos (or bindings) in x shape, and pointy noses.
I am hoping someone can put in info. to take this further.
