Cathy posts a
review of Marianne Vedeler's book "Silk for the Vikings".
Jonathan Jarrett has put together
a resources page you'll definitely want to check out.
There's a German article about
silk relics (tunic pieces) from the fourth century.
King Richard III has
undergone multi-element isotope analysis, and seems to have liked his booze, judging from that.
That's it for today - now I'll go back to my presentation writing.
