Clanabzeichen
.jpg)
Ein Clanabzeichen, manchmal auch Pflanzenabzeichen, ist ein Abzeichen (engl.: „badge“) oder Symbol (gewöhnlich ein kleiner Zweig einer spezifischen Pflanze), das benutzt wird, um ein Clanmitglied eines jeweiligen schottischen Clans zu identifizieren. Getragen werden sie meist auf einer barettartigen Mütze hinter dem jeweiligen Wappenabzeichen, oder angeheftet an die Schulter der Tartanschärpe einer Frau. Gemäß einer weit verbreiteten Überlieferung wurden Clanabzeichen benutzt, um Clanmitglieder während einer Schlacht erkennen zu können. Zum Beispiel wurden von den Truppen von General Montrose während der Plünderung von Aberdeen kleine Haferzweige als Erkennung verwendet. Die Jakobiten benutzten beispielsweise die „Weiße Kokarde“ (engl.: „White Cockade“).

"The assumption of the badge of the cumin plant for the supposed clan, a plant that is only found in the region of Egypt, but which happens to be named in the Old Testament, is scarcely correct. It is rather the common sallow, a species of willow, that the Cummings have adopted as their clan badge."
