| description | Within textile Archaeology several key Etruscan sites provide experimental archaeologists with ample evidence for research and recreation. This project aims to look a the textile patterns themselves, and how these weavers might have created the images found on famous Etruscan paintings. Through looking at the Italic images of their own clothing alongside surviving textile fragments modern archaeologists can try to understand ancient weavers and their process of tablet weaving. Five tablet-woven patterns were chosen from Etruscan paintings with this approach in mind. These patterns were based off of the images from the Tomb of the Triclinium and the surviving textile fragments from Verucchio, providing a possible guide for future research and speculative pattern reconstruction. |
