copperbadge:historical-nonfiction:Someone living in Sweden during the Iron Age wore this cloak. Unfortunately, they wore it while they were murdered: forensic analysis found the holes in the cloak matchhow stabs would have penetrated the folds of the cloak when it was being worn. Dating to 360 to 100 BCE, is also the oldest known example of a houndstooth pattern!Are we not gonna discuss the fact that it also hovers unaided in midair? #I WANNA SEE THE MURDER HOLES (via @nekesaafia)Here they are! Alas, it seems they’re not definitively proven to be murder holes :( Found a post that says it was found neatly folded in a bog and there was no body, so it’s a mystery cloak. -- source link
