Sponsored by TWIST - Tablet Weavers International Studies & Techniques

Gina kindly sent me a scan of the article she mentioned.


>It mentions a bone tablet 32mm x 35mm 'heavily worn round each of its four 
>holes' and a pair of triangular bone tablets 'an even thickness of 1mm and, 
>initially, the size of the holes was only 1mm in diameter'. 'Lines of wear 
>which radiate deeply in six directions on both faces of the triangular 
>tablet in the Museum of London suggest it was repeatedly given 1/6 turns.' 

Although Pritchard seems convinced that the wear is from weaving, the
only reference she quotes for this section is TTW (p129-130, which seems
to be p99-100 in the pb edition, and fig. 81 in both).  She doesn't
mention that there Peter classifies the 1/6 turn technique as non-
traditional.
