[Regia-NA] oats and barley and wheat

[Douglas Sunlin]

Eileen (et al.):

You asked about baskets. I had forgetten about this:
http://www.geocities.com/baldurstrand/basket.html

There are a couple of baskets from Norse contexts in the Viking Age and both 
seem to have used the same construction techniques and materials. What that 
is exactly, you're asking the wrong person. But if you find something that 
looks like them, get two! ;>
