Clans of Montenegro

[Mikula]

Does exists some system of symbols, clothing, slogans etc., for the clans of Montenegro
(like for example in Scottish clans)?

[Mikula]

Does have each Montenegrin clan its own Saint patron for Slava (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slava)?

Djurdjevdan (St. George day) is characteristic for Drobnjaci, also Savindan (St. Sava) for some families in Drobnjak, but mostly for emigrants from Drobnjak.

Petkovan (St. Petka) is characteristic for Bjelopavlici, Arandjelovdan (St. Michael) is on of the most common slava's among the Serbs generally (with St. Nicholas and St. George). It's characteristic for Ozrinici, Piperi and Vasojevici for example, but also for lot of smaller clans. Nikoljdan (St. Nicholas) is slava of Kuci tribe. Lucindan (St. Luke the Evangelist) is characteristic for Niksici tribe. In some tribes some brotherhoods celebrate different slavas. That's in short.

You are probably Šćekić, right?

You are probably Šćekić, right?

I'm indeed far related to Šćekić. But I have a other surname. And that is becaus a forefather of my, killed a highly ranked Turkish Ottoman person. So he fled away and took a other surname to not be persecuted .

Interesting is genetic of Montenegrin tribes.
Most of them have more than 1 haplogroup, usualy 2-3, and Paštrovići have even 6-7 haplogroups.

Montenegro is small country, and there is more haplogroup in Montenegro than in any European country. montenegro is diverse in paternal lines as Brazil.
