Tunic

Type 3


According to the typology given in Nockert, Type 3 Tunics are typified as

"Garments comprising two straight cut main pieces -- front and back -- joined together with a shoulder seam. Gores inserted in the middle of the main pieces. No side gores. Sleeve design indeterminate. Neck slitscan occur."

There are two examples of this type of tunic; both inner garments from Herjolfsnes, including one worn by a child, including Herjolfsnes no.7.
