[Periodencampments] The History of Tents - Updated at last & Door flap hooks.

[Stephen Wyley]

Hi All,

I have finally finished the up date to the "History of Tents website" after
the debarcle of "homepage.com".

I have started added new period tents to the lists;

10th century (Liber Sacramentorum) (8th July 2001)
http://www.geocities.com/historyoftents/10thcentury/10thc-3.html#top

3rd Quarter 13th century (Balnea Puteolana)  (15/7/01)
http://www.geocities.com/historyoftents/13thcentury/3rdquarter13thc-1.html#top

And updated;
1270 A.D. (Psautier de St.Louis) Link to picture  (15/7/01)
http://www.geocities.com/historyoftents/13thcentury/1270-1.html

And there is many, many more to come.

Note also the site search function, eg. Door flap hooks:
