*Harley Psalter fol.1v [OWEN-CROCKER 1976:p.489]. I think there is a typo in her book as it references fol. 27v [OWEN-CROCKER 2004:p.257] which shows no seated figure.

*Birka, Sweden, grave Bj903, a pair of bronze hooks in situ under the kneecaps of a male skeleton. 10th cent. (from Arbman [ARBMAN 1940-43)]. The hooks were fastened into small iron rings, to which linen tabby possibly from the trousers was rusted [HAGG 1986]*Novgorod , A bronze hook, C9-10th. (from Nosov [NOSOV 1987)].*Winchester, England, a pair of small silver hooked tags found below the knee, C9th. (from Biddle [BIDDLE 1990)].

Biddle suggests that a better use for such hooks is to hold together two edges of a garment. For instance, they could have been used to fasten a split in the upper edge of a short stocking, allowing it to fit snugly to the calf. ([BEATSON, Wickelbander n.d.)-b]

*The three Magi, from 'Benedictional of St. Aethelwold', Anglo-Saxon 971-984AD are an example of . The three Magi have tassels or tags on the ends of the garters or ties.<br>

*Denmark, Daugbjerg. As seen on the Daugbjerg bog body (xxxC)simple cords may have been used to hold up the leg bindings([OWEN-CROCKER 2004, : p.118) (] [CROOM 2000, : p.57-58)]*Denmark, Søgård Mose. [CROOM 2000]*Finland. Narrow tablet woven garters were used by Viking Age Finns to fasten their chevron twill puttees (Khvoschchinskaia [KHVOSCHCHINSKAIA 1992)], the garters often had plaited terminals interlaced with coils of bronze wire a particularly Baltic embellishment([BEATSON-b]*Norway, Wickelbander nSkjoldenhamn.dc.)1024AD. Tablet woven ankle band [LOVLID 2009]

*Lejre, Denmark, 3 finds. Bronze and iron. c.900AD ([BEATSON, Wickelbander n.d.)-b]

A rare left over from the popular Germanic aristocratic fashion from the Merovingian period. ([BEATSON, Wickelbander n.d.)-b]
