| Notes | Portion of a shoulder-band from a linen tunic; tapestry-woven in coloured wools (now perished) and undyed linen thread on linen warps. Pointed oval ornaments of floral character are enclosed by bands forming ogee-shaped compartments. This example was woven direct on the warps of the garment, like the greater number of the earlier stuffs; the practice is unusual at this period. |
