Add to album

This is the back of a brown woollen cloth shirt, discovered on a man's body found at Gunnister in Northmavine in Shetland in the late 17th century. When he died, the man was wearing a coat, jacket, shirt, breeches, cap and stockings.

The right arm is torn half way up the sleeve.

Some of the possessions found with the man's body were a wooden pail, a horn spoon and a knife handle which all could have been used for preparing and eating food.
