- Two fragments of woven wool fabric that have been sewn together. Fragment A - Yellowed warp and weft with a 0.7 cm wide red weft band which is next to a braided border and small remnants of a divided purple weft band near the opposite edge. The purple band is 0.4 cm wide with 8 purple picks in one half, 12 purple picks in the other half and divided by two picks of yellow.; Fragment B - Yellowed warp and weft with a 3 cm wide purple weft band. There are two very deteriorated rows of weft-twining on one side of the weft band, 0.5 cm and 1.5 cm from the edge of the purple weft. The twining loops pass over two warps. This fragment was folded and sewn to fragment A at right angles.

- Notes:
- Fragment of a tapestry rectangle with paired linen warps, blue/black wool and undyed linen wefts and linen weft-wrapping. A very small piece of undyed linen fabric was sewn on at one corner. The weft-wrapping is very deteriorated and the fragment is very dirty and worn so details are difficult to discern. The central motif may be a human figure with arches above and below, in a small rectangle. Surrounding this central rectangle are floral or leaf motifs in wool on a linen ground. A blue/black wool border around the outside encloses the tapestry. The wefts along the two warp-wise edges encircle the warps and there are a few small remnants of linen, possibly dove-tailing. There are linen stitches along one warp-wise and one weft-wise edge, also.

- Two groups of multiple warps 65.5 cm apart. 1) two consecutive sets, 4 threats per shot, ca. 0.6 cm. wide; 2) Three threads per shot, 0.2 cm. wide; The selvedges define the width of the original fabric and design.; Large fragment of undyed woven linen fabric with parts of both selvedges and two multiple weft ribs near one edge. A very small (1 cm x 1 cm) fragment of high luster woven wool fabric with blue/black discontinuous wefts was found on this fragment, caught within one of the holes.
