* Birka, Sweden: 5 graves (BJ 716, 752, 944, 985, 1074) contained buttons from a kaftan style coat. The buttons are of copper alloy, except for BJ 985 where they are lead. The buttons run from the neck to the waist, and not further. In three of the graves (BJ 716, 752, 1074) the coat was worn with a studed belt of eastern type. [HAGG1986: p.68] [Jansson1986: p. 78]
