Details

Materials

The Holy Veil is a mix of silk, and cotton. The symbols on the secondary veil are hand sewed beads, with golden thread.

Manufacturing process

Hand sewed; obviously made by a very skilled hand.

Significance

Religious; The archaeological team stumbled upon the temple and a select few items inside. This finding was incredibly important to historians as well as the religious community. When the team's finds were announced to the public, there was an immediate rush from religious figures attempting to keep the veil from being sold. They fought with collectors and hobbyists alike, to get the Veil into a history museum and aim for its preservation.
The religious community claim that this Veil belonged to the Goddess herself, as due to the age of the location and its excellent craftsmanship leans toward it being an extremely important item. Historians claim that it may be the first case of a Priestess, or perhaps the Goddess herself, wearing a veil.
After this discovery, it became common for Priest and Priestess to wear similar veils.
