Check(er)ed clothing in the Roman army, 1st C
#48
Without a closer examination and an edge I think it would be very difficult to tell if the original chevron weave of the cloth was woven vertically or horizontally it would make sense to weave it vertically, although theres no reason why you couldnt weave it horizontally, swings and roundabouts really I think...

"And the four bare walls stand on the seashore. a wreck a skeleton a monument of that instability and vicissitude to which all things human are subject. Not a dwelling within sight, and the farm labourer, and curious traveller, are the only persons that ever visit the scene where once so many thousands were congregated." T.Lewin 1867
