Textiles in the News - TAS 149

What this episode covers

In segment 1 we discuss a recent article about 25 burials found at the Chan Chan archaeological site in Peru, and the textile objects they were buried with. Segment 2 is all about new evidence for the type of material used to weave cloth at Çatalhöyük, 8000-9000 years ago. And finally, archaeological evidence in Britain shows how Neolithic weavers joined bast fibers using a splicing technique that has been developed at many times and in many places around the world.
