Karanis; Textiles; Wool; leaf/vine

Notes:

Two fragments of woven wool fabric that have been sewn together.; Fragment A - beige warp and weft; Fragment B - beige warp and weft with purple tapestry at one end. The tapestry is somewhat deteriorated. A divided weft band, 1.9 cm wide with 0.1 cm of beige weft divider, has several roughly oval shapes on one side and a leaf and vine motif on the other. There are a few small remnants of yellow wool weft-wrapping in the divided band. Next to the leaf and vine, the purple weft has some very deteriorated linen weft-wrapping.
