Brick is not mentioned. The principal articles of food are bread (of wheat or barley), roast meat, and wine. Fish is only eaten when meat is scarce. Fruit is plentiful, apples, pears, figs, grapes, and pomegranates. Veget- ables are not spoken of. Men's dress is a wool- len shirt reaching to the knees, and over that a cloak or plaid. Women wear a long gown of wool or linen reaching to the feet and trailing 21 slightly on the ground behind, fastened by a girdle worn low down over the hips. On th...eir head they wear, married and unmarried women alike, a coif with a veil attached which falls over the back and shoulders: they do not keep their faces covered like Orientals, but if they feel so disposed can bring the edges of the veil forward on both sides so as partly to screen their face. For fighting, the warrior has a hel- met, breast-plate and back-plate, greaves, belt, and shield, all plated with bronze ; he carries two long spears of ashwood with bronze heads, which are either thrown from a short distance or thrust with at close quarters, and a very short sword, rather like a heavy knife.
