A sporran is a type of pouch worn in front of the kilt – a traditional item of clothing worn in the Highlands of Scotland. When the kilt was established as the national ceremonial costume, the sporran became increasingly more ornate. The sporran flask is significantly flatter than more traditional flasks, so that it can slip into the sporran without causing discomfort.

The concept of a tree of life has been used in science, religion, philosophy, and mythology. A tree of life is a common motif in various world theologies, mythologies, and philosophies. It alludes to the interconnection of all life on our planet and serves as a metaphor for common descent in the evolutionary sense.
