NESAT XII. The North European Symposium for Archaeological Textiles, 21st – 24th May 2014 in Hallstatt, Austria2015 •
The NESAT XII symposium was organized by the Natural History Museum Vienna from 21st to 24th May 2014 in Hallstatt, Austria. The North European Symposium for Archaeological Textiles (NESAT) was founded in 1981 as a discussion forum between various disciplines: textile archaeologists, historians, art historians, natural scientists, conservators and craftspeople. The conference volume contains 35 scientific papers grouped into seven chapters. The first chapters introduce Austrian textile research and prehistoric textile finds from Europe, such as recent analysis of the earliest wool finds and early Scandinavian textile design. The main corpus of articles deals with textiles and clothing covering a time span from early medieval to the early modern period, their archaeological research, experiments and art historical context. Five papers focus on tools and textile production, object-based research as well as experimental archaeology and investigation of written sources. The chapter “Specific analyses” embraces interdisciplinary research including dyestuff analysis, isotopic tracing and a drawing system for archaeological textile finds from graves. The book, therefore, provides a wealth of information on recent research being undertaken into archaeological textiles from sites in Central and Northern Europe.

The NESAT symposium has grown from the first meeting in 1981 which was attended by 23 scholars, to over 100 at the tenth meeting that took place in Copenhagen in 2008, with virtually all areas of Europe represented. The 50 papers from the conference presented here show the vibrance of the study of archaeological textiles today. Examples studied come from the Bronze Age, Neolithic, the Iron Age, Roman, Viking, the Middle Ages and post-Medieval, and from a wide range of countries including Norway, Czech Republic, Poland, Greece, Germany, Lithuania, Estonia and the Netherlands. Modern techniques of analysis and examination are also discussed.

Textiles attached to Roman coins: Case studies and interpretations2023 •
EN. In Roman archaeology of the provinces situated in modern-day Europe, textile studies have been traditionally approached through written and iconographic sources. The archaeological textile corpus in the first half of the first millennium CE is particularly scarce, and often come from old excavations without detailed contexts. Moreover, the findings are difficult to locate in the scientific literature. In the last few decades, Roman period textiles have been studied with an interdisciplinary approach, including fibre or dyestuff analyses and scientific methods. For example, Raman and Surface Enhanced Raman Scattering (SERS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) and spectrophotometry. It is also important to study the contexts of the textiles, the graves, settlements and hoards and thereby understand the archaeological textiles in situ. This article provides an overview of a lesser-known phenomenon: textiles attached to Roman coins. It presents evidence of textiles preserved attached to coins in archaeological contexts from the Roman provinces (Hispania, Noricum, and Pannonia). It draws attention to a little studied textile function and compares findings from different regions of the Roman Empire. ES. En la Arqueología de las provincias romanas situadas en la actual Europa, los tejidos, tradicionalmente, se han aproximado a través de las fuentes escritas e iconográficas. El corpus de tejidos arqueológicos en la primera mitad del primer milenio a.C. es particularmente escaso y a menudo procedente de antiguas excavaciones con escasa información de contexto. Además, los descubrimientos suelen ser difíciles de localizar en la bibliografía científica. En las últimas décadas, los tejidos romanos se han estudiado con perspectivas interdisciplinares, incluyendo el análisis de las fibras y tines con métodos científicos. Por ejemplo, Raman and Surface Enhanced Raman Scattering (SERS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) and spectrophotometry. También es importante estudiar los contextos textiles, las tumbas, los asentamientos y las acumulaciones de monedas para entender así los tejidos in situ. Este artículo ofrece una síntesis sobre un fenómeno menos conocido: tejidos adheridos a monedas romanas. Se presentan tejidos conservados en contacto con monedas procedentes de distintas provincias (Hispania, Noricum y Pannonia). Se centra la atención en una función textil menos estudiada y se comparan ejemplares de distintas zonas del Imperio.
