To celebrate the tenth sitting of the symposium and the growth of the archaeological textile community since the first one in 1981, an open call was made for papers in order to fertilize the proceeding with perspectives from other disciplines. Among the 49 topics are a comparison between two preserved tunics and 13th-century art, differences in the elaboration of dress in northern Europe during the Middle Bronze Age, a preliminary assessment of the Magdelensberg textile tools, construction and sewing technique in secular medieval garments, evidence of war and worship in textiles in Roman Iron Age deposits, textiles from the third to twelfth century AD cremation graves in Lithuania, plaited motifs as predecessors of woven binding structures, the impact of dyes and natural pigmentation of wool on the preservation of archaeological textiles, customs of burial costume in rural Norway, and horsehair in female head-dresses of the 12th-13th centuries AD Latvia. A battery of color plates is provided, but no index. Distributed in North America by The David Brown Book Co. Annotation ©2010 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
