These are charts that I made from some extant 14^th Century German purses. I found the images on Tasha Kelly McGann’s website here http://www.cottesimple.com/alms_purse/alms_purse_history.html

Specifically this page:

Well I guess that site is down.. so here is the image. I will fill in its source soon. I have to dig through my collection of page print outs. It is a good thing I've been trying to print out the entire internet!!

I numbered my charts from left to right, I only charted the bottom row of purses.
