خلاصة:
The Douzlakh salt mine at Chehr Abad, Zanjan Province, Iran has provided a rare
organic preservation of human remains, and associated cloth and clothing. This textile
evidence offers a window into a poorly known but pivotal era of textile history.
Moreover, the context is of accidental burial of miners at work, rather than deliberate
burial of elites. At least six bodies have been recovered, one of which was very well
preserved, being fully clothed and carrying items of personal equipment. This paper is
a summary of preliminary findings on the textile assemblage.
ملخص الجهاز:
This first body (now thought to be a mixed assemblage of at least two individuals) was associated with several textile fragments, with notable weave structure and beautifully dyed threads of yellow, red and blue.
Techniques of Spinning and Thread-Making The textiles from Chehr Abad fall into two broad categories - balanced ‘open’ tabby weave cloth and, more commonly, strongly weft-faced tabbies in which the warp threads are two-plied; but there are several variations on these two main types.
Some weft threads from the textiles at Chehr Abad are more loosely spun, and are extremely fine, ranging between 25-.
The textiles featuring colored threads can be divided to four weave structures: weft-striped tabby weave, compound twill, tapestry and plain weave.
the textiles, 21 colored samples representing the range of different colours were chosen for dye extraction and identification at the Chemistry Laboratory of the Research Center for Conservation in Tehran (Vatandoust, 2005; Hadian n.
Tin and chromium mordant are also used in yellow dyeing, but the analyses of the Chehr Abad textile fragments showed no trace of these in the fibers, although they were present in the mine soil.
Textile Fragment 10073 The weave structure of this sample is also a weft-faced plain weave.
