Welcome to The Textile Archaeologist!
The Textile Archaeologist is an initiative to bring archaeological textiles to the attention of all stakeholders of the archaeological world.
Archaeological textiles are often considered to be the most vulnerable archaeological heritage, as they perish easily and therefore seldom remain preserved to the present day. For that reason we have to cherish what has been preserved.
On this website, archaeological textile finds are not only mapped, but also extensively referred to the people who excavated and studied the material, and of course their publications.
