29 textile fragments adhering on Avar pellet bells from cemeteries in Hungary (Halimba-Belátó-domb, Jánoshida, Keszthely, Kölked-Feketekapu, Pilismarót-Öregek-dűlő, Szob, Keszthely-Városi temető, Gyenesdiás), Slovakia (Devínska Nová Ves I; Komárno-Lodenice) and Austria (Zillingtal) were analysed and interpreted. Human skin, leather and a horse hair were found.
Usage Notes
Textile remains were analyzed using a digital microscope (DinoLite digital microscope), which allows magnifications between 30x and 250x.
