Martin,
Thanks for the response. However, with respect to your answer I am not entirely sure what you mean. It could be since I have a 40C fever, that I am not exactly all the clear when I am reading.
"I followed the measurements of the Vindonissa find (incomplete original overall size is 38,2 x 11,2 according to the article): This works out for the finished piece, whose front closing flap form is taken from the Vindolanda find, to a size of ca. 15 x 11.5 x 5 cm. For my reconstruction I did not take the Vindolanda measurements into account."
Are you saying that the original size from top to bottom of the unfolded pouch (as in the picture of the original ) measured 38,2 X 11,2 but when you put the notebook bag together where you fold the pouch and sew the edges, the overall final size for the front part of the body is 15 cm and the back part including the flap make up the remaning 23 or so cm? Thus it gives a width of 5cm?
Thanks
