===Archaeology===
----
Scabbards seem to be predominately made up of 4 layer:
* Lining -
* Core -
* Wrapping -
* Cover -
This is probably an over simplification and more information can be found in the Construction section.<br>

====Denmark====
* Hedeby (from the Harbour) <br> 12 swords were recovered from the Harbour at Hedeby. 10 of these had partial remains of scabbards still attached. [HAGG 1991: p.248-268]
** Sword 1 - Wooden scabbard of oak. Plied construction. Lined in animal fur. Covered in two layers of leather.<br> The outer horizontal top layer of wood may be of very thin wood or bark bast (possibly used to bind instead of textile?). The outer layer of leather has 3 diamond cut outs down its front. Two rows, 3cm apart, of decorative metal rivets was located in the area of the top mount. [HAGG 1991: p.248-257, p.265]
** Sword 2 - Wooden scabbard of beech. Possible leather covering.
** Sword 3 - Wooden scabbard of alder. Plied construction.
