Reply to: RE>>Cacamauro, panno tedesco, de amascio
Thank you to Robert Colasacco, Gloria Allaire and Tony Pagliaro for their suggestions. Tony is probably right, that cacamauro is a dittography for camauro. I have since found Northern European illustrations in which the Caiaphas pontifex/ high-priest wears an appropriately pontifical cap with long side flaps.
I'd still like some clues on panno tedesco - the latest lot used in the play is black.
