A reconstruction of the dress from an Iron Age grave in the Netherlands, created by Prehistorisch Dorp in Eindhoven<\/p>\n

A 2800-year-old red and blue checked dress found in an Early Iron Age grave in the Netherlands might be the oldest double-colour woven garment in Europe.<\/p>\n

The skeleton of the elite individual who once wore this striking outfit had completely decayed due to harsh, sandy soil. But through mineralisation underneath metallic jewellery, remnants of the much-decayed and now-brown wool dress provide evidence that the dyed textiles came from clothing, says Karina Gr\u00f6mer<\/a> at the Natural History Museum, Vienna.\u2026<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
