Karanis; Textiles; Wool

Notes:

Fragment of woven wool fabric with yellowed warp, 3 cm of yellowed weft and 7 cm of green weft. At the edge with the yellowed weft, there is a 2.5 cm wide section in the green weft, with eccentric weft and linen weft-wrapping which form patterns, now somewhat indistinct due to wear. There are several linen slit tapestry elements along the edge between the patterned area and the yellow weft.
