Maybe I'm confusing that with woad (early Britons painted blue), a source of dye? |

Dyed in the weld??? |

Dyers were restricted to outside the town walls as many processes involved tramping in stale urine |

I am going to say everyone got that right. It was a source of a cheap and common pale yellow dye - also called dyer's rocket, dyer's mignonette and dyer's broom. Q6. What are Fagottini? |

Evidently early Britons used to go to war naked, covered in woad and with their hair limed to stand on end. The enemy either turned and ran or collapsed with laughter (unless you were a Roman of course!) |
