  1. I'm with Nick generally on this. I suspect a pad of cheaper more absorbent material was being used that required less washing or could simply be thrown away, inside of a subligaculum of lighter material. I'd always presumed the basic design of a subligaculum was used across many parts of the world in pre-industrial societies, perhaps just a long rectangle of cloth with tie strings at one end.
