The Romanesque period costume is particularly hard to document. In central
Europe this is the time of the Ottonians (successors to
Charlemagne). There are many textile fragments and a few existing garments
from this period. Check Bender-Jorgenson for the textiles, Marc Calson's
pages for existing garments, manuscript illumination is pretty good at this
time also. North coastal areas would be late Viking (Ribe, etc).

Subject: [h-cost] 10th - 11th C. German
I hope someone can assist me. One of the members of my "household"
wants to take a look at what a 10th to the 11th C. German man would have
worn. I
tried to look through the net - but must not of worded my search correctly
because I could not find anything.
Would the German people at this time be considered the Franks? Any
suggestions would be helpful.
I'm trying hard to get more of my group to join this list. :-)
