: A flat piece of finely woven linen with fine threads, white in colour. It is rectangular and slightly creased. A very fine almost transparent cream tabby weave linen fragment. It has all-over flecks of white particulate matter embedded within the weave structure. This could be evidence of starch or bleaching product (natron?).
