Those are amazing. Almost call the sock MOD in coloring. Wow.

 

Thank, this is very interesting. I still cannot wrap my head around the colors.

But I DID remember to contribute a tiny few dollars to the The Guardian after reading your post, Liza.

 

A fascinating article, Liza. This is clearly very good news for museums especially....and is an article I wish I read a month ago, as I just had ink analysis done on an item in my collection, and they had to take a minute sample of the ink to do it.

 

I love the ways in which new technology is used to analyse the ancient world. Great article. I recently saw the fabulous egyptians collection at the British Museum... blown away.
