Notes
Fragment of a linen tunic, with tapestry-woven ornaments in coloured wools and undyed linen thread on linen warps. Parts of the two shoulder-bands are preserved, with the narrow border connecting them below the neck-opening. The former contain floral forms and trellis ornament, chiefly in white outline, on a red ground. The connecting border has a device (much defaced) within a circle, in red on a black ground. A narrow band of tapestry ornament with wavy lines and discs has been attached to the right side and the top of the fragment.
