"Also, the physical features of the mummies (the oldest of which is 2000 BC) looked very much like someone from Europe today; the surviving fabric samples (some of which were similar to tartans) were similar to those of Europe and atypical of the then-contemporary Chinese fabrics. :')"

I think you're getting your/our mummies mixed up. The 'tartan' mummies were those in the Tarim Basin in China. The Windover mummies are the ones found in the Florida bog and had fabrics but not similar to tartans.
