Home Our Favourites Guide to Scotland Sitemap ... Help CURLING'S GOLDEN AGE
Curling has swept into the sporting spotlight following the outstanding success of five Scotswomen in lifting Olympic gold. Here Hilary McNally looks at the history of Scotland's other national sport.
Mention the words Scottish and sport in the same sentence and most people will think of football, which despite a distinct lack of international success over the years is still something of a national obsession.
Quite possibly, golf may also come to mind largely because of Scotland's status as the birthplace of the game.
But although curling can make a similar and perhaps even stronger claim to Scottish origins it has, in modern times at least, been left out in the cold as far as popular sporting culture and the public consciousness is concerned.
That however has all changed thanks to the brilliant performance of five Scotswomen at this year's winter Olympics in Salt Lake City in the USA.

History of curling.
It's not known for sure where the country of origin is. There is a painting in oil by Pieter Bruegel, on one hand, dated in the year 1565. This very painting shows a winter landscape with a curling scene.On the other hand, there is an obituary from 1511 about the medical doctor George Ruthven, in witch is pointed out that he was firmly addicted to curling. Either Holland or Scotland, you'll smile anyway while getting involved with the curling history. Not only medicine doctors, particularly the sacredness authorities did indulge in curling. Therefore you find in a written process record form 11. December 1638, that John Graham, nothing less than the Bishop from Orkney in north Scotland, has profaned the Sunday by playing curling: " He was a curler on the ice on the Sabbath day". The first founded Curling Club was the one called Kinross-Club playing in Lochleven. A few history students, leaded by judge Skelton, decided in 1818 to think back the formal established founding of the club until 1668.
It's guessed, that already 42 Clubs where founded in the 18th Centaury. Most of them where located in the area around Stirling and Perth. One of these clubs was also the one from Muthill- Society. Someone found in their accounting book a position that said, that the icemaker Isabel White obtained some Whiskey.

108. Hairdressing History Hairstyling Hair
history OF STYLES. Ancient World. In early and primitive socities the simplest hair Both sexes wore fillets, and the upper classes used curling irons.
http://www.queensnewyork.com/history/hair.html
HAIRDRESSING is the art of arranging the hair or otherwise modifying its natural state. Closely related to headgear, hairdressing has been an im portant part of the dress of both men and women since antiquity and, like dress, serves a number of functions.
Almost all societies have found it necessary to cut or confine the hair in order to keep it out of the way. They further arranged their hair to fulfill man's basic desire for personal adornment, which may vary in form from the ornately curled, blond wigs of Roman matrons to the sleek shin gled heads of flappers in the 1920's. One ex tremely important function of hair styling, especially in traditional preindustrial societies, is to indicate status. Primitive men, for example, fastened bones, feathers, and other objects in their hair to impress the lowly and frighten the enemy with their rank and prowess. Noble rank among the ancient Gauls was indicated by long hair, which Caesar made them cut off as a sign of sub mission when he conquered them. The occupa tional associations of hair are exemplified by the gray wig of a British barrister and the lacquered, black wig of a Japanese geisha.
The religious significance of hair is seen in the shaved heads of Christian and Buddhist monks, indicating renunciation of the world, and in the single long lock on the shaved heads of Nluslim men, by which, they believed, Allah would pull them up to heaven. In 17th century England, both politics and religion were pro fessed by the long curling locks of the Royalist Anglican Cavaliers and the cropped hair of the Parliamentarian Puritan Roundheads.

http://library.thinkquest.org/26974/e_history.htm
History Curling is a very old scottish sport. It isn't known, when scottish people began playing Curling. But in the Smith Institute in Stirling is a rock with the engraved year 1511 exposed. The first report about a Curlingmatch between two monks stems from Paisley Abbey near Glasgow and is dated February 1541. Someone named Mr. James Gall let on his tombstone engrave in Perth, Scotland, that he was a big Curling fan. The ancient Scotland was a poor country. The Citys hadn't got a lot citizens, no public traffic existed, the land was poor and only within some months useful. So, the only occupation of the Scots was to thrash the British or steal some sheeps of the neighbor's clan. But at all times, they did sports. The hooligans were probably a scottish invention, because 1457, the scottish parliament prohibitted Soccer and Golf (!) because they aroused riots. Curling wasn't endangered by this prohibition allthough the rocks were great to hit an opponent.. The first Curling rocks weighted only 2 or 3 kg. They had the design of a hand. And so they were called "loofies" (loof=hand in old english) With the help of the time, the rocks became like today ones. The people called them boulders, gave them a handle and rounded them like the modern rocks . At the beginning, everybody knew, that you must shoo the rockk from A to B, but no precise rules were known. Especially the lenght or width of the rink or the size and the weight of the rock were unknown.. That's why some real boulders appeared in 18th Century. The biggest one, the "Jubilee Stone" had the weight of 58.5 kg. If this would be still so today, Curling would be a sport for strong men. Fortunately, the evolution took another way.

Ursprünglich war das erste diesjährige DEB-Sichtungsturnier für den Jahrgang 1991 in der Berliner Deutschlandhalle vorgesehen. Aus „baulichen Gründen“ wurde die Halle jedoch kurzfristig geschlossen, so dass guter Rat teuer war. In der Kürze der zur Verfügung stehenden Zeit eine Ausweichmöglichkeit zu finden, war nahezu aussichtslos und die Gefahr einer generellen Turnierabsage schien unausweichlich.

Curling For the persons among you who never saw curling before: Curling is a sport played on ice with two teams of four players. The purpose of the game is to put your stones (made out of granite, weight about 20kg) closer to the center of the "house" (the circles drawn on the ice surface) than the other team. Two stones of each player are thrown alternating by both teams for a total of sixteen stones per "end". Each end the team whose stones are closest to the center of the house gets one point for each stone that is closer than the best of the opponent. After ten ends (game time about 2:30 hours) the team with the most points wins the game. The stones do not move in a straight line. They are thrown with a turning motion and due to the friction with the ice they move along a curved path. The sweeping of the ice surface creates a thin waterfilm which lowers the friction between stone and ice. This has two effects: the stone does not slow down as quickly and runs farther before it stops and the curved path becomes straighter. Therefore the place where the stone stops and its direction can be changed while it is running without touching it. This makes top level curling to a game of precision (centimeters over a distance of 40 meters) and physical endurance (for the sweeping). On a lower level curling is however a game that can be enjoyed by male and female from the young to the old. Curling is of Scottish origin and widely popular in Canada . It has however grown internationally significantly in the last 10 years and is now played in more than thirty countries world wide. This was recognized by the International Olympic Committee by accepting curling as a full medal sport at the Olympic Winter Games in
