Also about the blue stripes—
"The belief that purple is the color of royalty stems from ancient Phoenicia. The Phoenicians discovered, in the 16th century BC, that a certain species of marine snail, Bolinus brandaris, would emit a purple hue when it was irritated. In their natural habitat, the snails used the secretion, an organic form of bromide, as a sedative when hunting their prey, but they would also secrete the same compound when under attack from predators. The Phoenicians found that they could irritate the snails, causing the substance to be emitted. Then they could either collect the secretion or crush the shell to extract the mucous."
"The Phoenicians also made a deep blue or indigo-colored dye from another species of marine snail closely related to for means brandaris. This snail, Hexaplex trunculus, was found off the coast of Morocco and produced a rather blueish color.
Thousands of these snails were needed to produce small amounts of dye. Most of this dye was made in the port city of Tyre (hence its name Tyrian purple), where archaeological records show that the snails were collected from the sea and placed in large vats to decompose. This process produced a horrendous stench that was recorded by many early explorers, but no records have been found to indicate how the color was extracted from the decomposing mess."
