Our Symbols
What characterizes us?
The clan crest is a badge worn by members of the clan. It represents a boar's head holding a stag's femur in its mouth, a reminder of a legendary story. He is surrounded by a belt bearing the motto of the clan: "Audentes Fortuna Juvat" (Fortune favors the daring).
This crest has been simplified to give the logo in use today.
There are four tartans represented here.
The crest is often accompanied by a symbolic plant. The MacKinnon clan has two plants: Scots Pine and St. John's Wort, depending on whether the carrier is from Skye or Mull
