Silk Road notebooks

[hrj]

Posted several of the detail pages for the Yingpan Man display. To wit: the embroidered pillow, a bit of text description of the undersleeves (which will also be covered in a later bit), and an extremely brief description of the headcloth combined with the small visible portion of the undertunic.

I've started following your posts and realize I need to go back and read the earlier ones.

The embroidered item is VERY interesting. Is it a pillow because its location in the grave, or is there other evidence (like what it was stuffed with)? Am I right that you didn't get to see the back of the work (which would help prove whether it was chain stitch or not)...?

Great notes and diagrams!!!!
