English: Square Tunic Ornament
The ornament is dark blue with cream motifs, on a dark yellow ground. At the center of the ornament is an inconspicuous Greek (equal-armed) cross. Around the cross are twelve squares, containing hooked cross or a four-petaled rosette. The Christian motifs and the yellow ground of this textile indicate that it was probably worn by a Christian after the Arabs decided that Christians should wear distinctive clothing. Materials/Construction: This textile is made of wool, in a tapestry weave. Single rows of twining accentuate some of the straight lines of the design, and the whole ornament is edged by a double row of twining. Measurement: 14 x 14 cm. Date: Tenth century. Accession number: CAS 0389-2434. |
