Math4Knitters: Episode 47

A bit of a ramble today about some WTHeck moments I've had while reading sources. Sorry!



Textile fragment found during the Yale-French Excavations at Dura-Europos (around 250)

There is a lot more information about the Dura-Europos site here.



Socks made in the 4th or 5th century, found at the burial grounds of Oxyrhynchus, a Greek colony on the Nile in central Egypt.

These socks are currently at the Victoria and Albert Museum.
