Clothing etc. in the Western Baltic c. 400-200 BCE - Sean Manning - 09-27-2023
The Hjortspring deposit gives a lot of wood, stone, iron, and copperalloy artefacts from the western Baltic in the early pre-Roman Iron Age. But people of the Baltic Early Iron Age don't seem to have left a lot of naturalistic images of people, just a few rock carvings and a few sculpted pots. And there are no major finds of textiles or hide products from this site. Are there any handy collections of evidence for clothing, hairstyles, makeup, tattoos, etc. from this place and time which I could pass along for an art briefing?
The Hjortspring Guild relied on sources from around the year 1 for their display of costume https://www.hjortspring.dk/index.php/en/the-reconstructions

You might try the Margrethe Hald Archive in particular "Ancient Danish Textiles from Bogs and Burials"
I dont think I've seen any new stuff for quiet some time though there is Julia Grafs "Lederfund der Vorrömischen Eisenzeit" which includes leather capes...
