In the movie Braveheart, William Wallace and his troops don kilts at various battles from 1297-1305. The movie Braveheart takes place in the year 1300. However, Scottish kilts were not invented until 3 centuries later by the Scots. Doh! Scottish kilts originate back to the 16th century, when they were traditionally worn as full length garments by Gaelic-speaking male Highlanders of northern Scotland. They were referred to as a léine, Gaelic for “shirt” and typically, the garments were draped over the shoulder or pulled over the head as cloaks. The wearing of Scottish kilts was common during the 1720s, when the British military used them as their formal uniforms. The knee-length kilt, similar to the modern kilt of today, did not develop until the late 17th or early 18th century. About "Sir William Wallace" he won some battles and lost some battles during his 35 years of life. Wallace was notoriously cruel to his enemies. He ultimately was captured by English forces near Glasgow, Scotland, on August 5, 1305. Wallace was taken to London, declared at traitor to the King of England, and was hanged, disemboweled, beheaded and quartered. And we think terrorists were invented in the late 1900s.
