Greek Lit? Me? Erm, nope, I just mentioned it once that if you want a definition of "epic", you should _ask_ a Greek Lit major, not an English major.
Okay, that explains alot then doesn't it,
The dad in MBFGW was always insisting that everything was invented in (Ancient) Greece. And while the Greek, amongst countless others, have worn skirt-like clothing -- and still do --, this hasn't exactly influenced the belted plaid of the Scots. Like I said before, there's only so much ways to wear a blanket. Not that it wouldn't have been possible, as the kilt is a pretty late invention. So much about Gibsons WWW, once again...
Thats total bullshit, lol
The Kilt came over from Greece the same time the bagpipes did,
The version you see now IS the later version of the (skirt like) kilt,
the orignal kilts were massive in comparison to the skirts of today
in fact, the way you would put on the first kilt was like this...
You would lay out on the floor the entire lenght of the kilt one long strip,
you would then get down and roll yourself in it (think cleopatra and carpet style) once rolled up in your kilt you then stood up and fasten a belt around your waist, then pushed down the rest of the top half of the kilt over the belt, bringing up the tail part over your shoulder, and fastened with a large pin, (this is all alot easier if you have a friend to help out)
I've seen this done,
