Inside was a lead coffin, which in turn revealed the well-preserved, partially mummified skeleton of a woman who had lived in Thessaloniki in the 4th century AD.<\/p>\n\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n<\/section>\n\n\n\n<section class=\"section EmphasisText  \">\n\t\n\t\t\n\t\t<div class=\"rich-text\">\n\t\t<p>Her body was covered with a purple silk fabric, dyed with a plant-based substitute for precious Tyrian purple and embroidered with golden threads in vegetal motifs, one of the very few ancient textiles preserved in Greece.<\/p>\n\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n\t\n<\/section>\n\n\n\n<section class=\"section ContentText TitleCenter  \">\n\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t<div class=\"rich-text\">\n\t\t<p>It is not only the exceptionally rare embalming technique &#8211; at least for this region and historical period &#8211; that makes the discovery so fascinating. Thanks to the shrouds soaked in resins and aromatic oils, traces of soft tissue, skin, and muscles were preserved. The archaeologists who opened the coffin were confronted with two astonishing surprises: beside the skull lay the woman\u2019s nearly intact chestnut braid, while even her eyebrows had survived in remarkable condition. Moreover, her body was covered with a purple silk fabric, dyed with a plant-based substitute for precious Tyrian purple and embroidered with golden threads in vegetal motifs, one of the very few
