I could listen to the history of textiles forever. Should have picked up this book earlier. There was some archeological finds of surviving cloth that I had never heard of. The connection between linen and ancient Egyptian spirituality. Daily rewrapping statues and other spiritual symbols in the finest linens multiplr times a day. It does put into perspective the importance and wealth attached to the burial shroad.

Love playing this in the background while I relax. Such interesting history about textiles. We take for granted the relationship with clothing to thr human experience as far back as the Neanderthals. For a long time we assumed they utalized futs and leathers over plant fibers, but St. Clair presented evidance of the very rare preservation of cloth fibers.
