Scientific publication on textiles from the Nile Valley
This book compiles 19 articles, primarily focused on early silk textiles from Egypt and the Mediterranean region. Silk was highly valued for the sheen and fineness of its fibers. From Roman times onward, it was imported from China, but local silk production also began. Silk is associated with the development of complex weaves and served as a status symbol in society. The spread and use of silk, as well as the rise of local sericulture in the first millennium AD, have not yet been fully studied. In this book, renowned experts delve deeper into early silk finds from excavations, the use of silk for clothing, and the weaving techniques of silk textiles.
This publication is based on the findings of the 13th International Scientific Congress on Textiles from the Nile Valley, held from 17 to 19 November 2023 in Antwerp.
