tent links redux

I've talked about tents before, but it's been so long that half the links are broken!

If you are looking for pictures of period tents, here are some great sites:

• The tents of history - a text only fairly comprehensive list of images of tents
• Zelte (german for tent) -an illustrated list of 9th-16 C tent images
• Sara van den Hoven's blog, tent category - musings on tents with occasional pictures and cutting plans
• Design of Renaisance Pavillions - a nice illustrated look at tent shapes (thanks Sara for the link)
• Surviving Medieval Pictures of Tents and Pavilions - a page of partial catalogues of images of tents, and links to a couple of extant 16-17th C tents. In fact, his entire tents index page is useful.
• Svein's Pavillion odessy- 13-16th C images of tents
• Medieval Pavillion Resources Tent Gallery - featuring links to both western and eastern images of tents
• Tent pictures of house greydragon -  13-16th C images of tents (mostly 15-16th C)

A few useful tips sites might be:

• links to images of setting up pavillions in the middle ages (mostly 14-15th C)
• Medieval pavillion resources - I'm not sure how well edited the quality is (no time to check right now), but the quantity is large
• A sorta taxonomy of pavilions - for distinguishing common medeival tent types, although note terminology varies widely
• Things I've learnt the hard way - mistakes not to make when constructing pavillions
• Pavilion Information from House Greydragon  - lots of interesting information including extant tents

Enjoy!
