Hi Aylwen,
I just did a very very superficial check on Geman
sites. In short, I found out that the Vendish
were a Slavic tribe/people and closely related to
the Sorbs. There is still a minority in eastern
Germany. Vendish and Sorbish appear to have the
same roots, but during the GDR the
I am currently researching costumes/clothing that would have been worn
by the Vendish people. Does anyone here know what they might have worn
as a special outfit that might now have been considered a folk
costume, considering they have now been assimilated into German
society.
Thanks, Aylwen
