This is my reproduction of one of Tutankhamun's (Tutankhamen's) slings, and is based on Harry Burton's photograph taken during the excavation of the tomb. The material is linen. The pouch was made on a special loom that I developed for the purpose. The cords are a 4-strand round braid, with four linen threads per strand. The finger loop is a 4-strand flat braid.
