Ancient Textiles
Publisher: Oxbow Books

Ancient Textiles is a long-running and very successful series established in collaboration between Oxbow Books and the Centre for Textile Research (CTR) of Copenhagen University. Initially a vehicle for publishing CTR’s research, in recent years the series has expanded to include submitted titles from a wide range of institutional and independent scholars. Titles cover many aspects of textile and clothing research from detailed analyses of specific cloths, weaves or dyes to discussions of technological developments in textile manufacture and production from prehistory to the medieval period, the use of textiles in specific contexts, and techniques of conservation.
