McGill Redmen : ウィキペディア英語版 | McGill Redmen
The McGill Redmen are the men's athletic teams that represent McGill University in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. The women's teams are known as the McGill Martlets. ==Name== The name Redmen was first published in 1929 as "Red Men" and was used to describe the red uniforms worn by McGill sports teams. Research done by McGill historian Dr. Stanley Frost indicated that the name Redmen derived from ancient times, when Celts were known as the "Red Men" because of their red hair... "our own Red Men were no doubt Celts in honour of James McGill's Scottish descent," notes Frost.. It has also been proposed that the name originated as a nickname coined by media outlets in the 1920s based on the official school colours and thus the colour of the jerseys worn by McGill sports teams. These differing claims are called in to question by some, however, who point to the fact that McGill team logos did for a time feature elements meant to evoke Aboriginal Canadian groups, as well as reports by news sources in the 1950s which refer to the "McGill Indians" in their sports reporting.〔()〕〔()〕
