Fiziksel açıklama
Fragment from a plain woven, undyed linen cloth, possibly a tunic or a hanging, decorated with a tapestry woven band in purple, red and green wools and undyed linen. The band depicts alternating human dancers and animal figures (an antelope and lion respectively). The figures are largely in purple, with the castanets and other objects held by the dancers in red and green wool, and details picked out in undyed linen thread. The band is edged with a scalloped border. At both sides the fragment preserves long looped pile.
