Fwd: tablet from 12th-century Poland

[SNSpies]

Thanks to a colleague posting the pictures from a book on 10th-to-13th-century Polish textiles on another list, I have just learned of another tablet to add to our list of extant tablets.   It is a wooden tablet, ca. 5.0 cm x 4.5 cm square, with a hole at each corner, dated 12th century.  The caption to the picture says "Ryc. 15 Tabliczka tkacka (1950/4170), XII w."   Kaminska, Janina and Adam Nahlik.  "Wlokiennictwo Gdanskie W X-XIII Wieku."  Lodz: Lodzkie Towarzystwo Naukowk (Societas Scientiarum Lodziensis), 1958.   You can see this tablet, and the other scanned pages from the book, at gallowglass.org/jadwiga/pictures/nahlik/gdansk/index.htm   Nancy     * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Nancy Spies Arelate Studio www.weavershand.com/ArelateStudio.html
