Hi
Does this hypothesis take into account the Twill textiles from Denmark from before the occupation?
Apparently the textiles in question are the so called Virring type. In some cases I believe they are also found with Roman artefacts. How they got where they are found and who made them is what is open for debate.
It could well be that they fall into one of those, the Barbarians were not sophisticated enough to make them so they must be Roman,types of arguments.
