Illustration of a woman who is a captive of Sennacherib who reigned in the eighth and seventh centuries BC. She wears a long tunic, and over it a long shawl fringed at the two ends. To drape this shawl, place one corner under the left arm-pit and draw it across the back under the right arm-pit, wrapping it once round the body ; draw it across the back and up over right shoulder. A corner of the fringed end will hang down in front of the right shoulder. From the book 'Ancient Egyptian, Assyrian, and Persian costumes and decorations' by Mary Galway Houston and Florence S Hornblower. Publication date 1920.
