|Literature
|Archaeology=* Russia, Novgorod. A hat made of roots 'in the manner of a rush hat' and 'shaped like a straw hat' [EWING 2006:p.120]
|Discussion =
It is very unlikely that any straw item would survive to be found. Always on poor people. This kind of hat was depicted in use during the Roman period and again in the C12th. It is likely that such a simple hat was in use by common agricultural workers throughout the Viking Age.
