Woven Threads
Author: Maria C. Shaw
Publisher: Oxbow Books
ISBN: 1785700618
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 289
Book Description
Woven textiles are produced by nearly all human societies. This volume investigates evidence for patterned textiles (that is, textiles woven with elaborate designs) that were produced by two early Mediterranean civilizations: the Minoans of Crete and the Mycenaeans of mainland Greece, that prospered during the Aegean Bronze Age, c. 3000–1200 BC, contemporary with Pharaonic Egypt. Both could boast of specialists in textile production. Together with their wine, oil, and art, Minoan and Mycenaean textiles were much desired as trade goods. Artistic images of their fabrics preserved both in the Aegean and in other parts of the Mediterranean show elaborate patterns woven with rich decorative detail and color. Only a few small scraps of textiles survive but evidence for their production is abundant and frescoes supply detailed information about a wide variety of now-lost textile goods from luxurious costumes and beautifully patterned wall hangings and carpets, to more utilitarian decorated fabrics. A review of surviving artistic and archaeological evidence indicates that textiles played essential practical and social roles in both Minoan and Mycenaean societies.

Macmillan Directory of UK Business Information Sources
Author: James Tudor
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 1349128716
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 443
Book Description
The objective of this publication is to provide a 'one stop' guide to business information, insofar as that is possible within the confines of a useable book. It aims to give guidance on both the published and organisational sources relevant to the needs of the non-professional business researcher and provides a listing of 'worthwhile' references and contacts. As previously, the Directory is organised so that both published sources and information centres are grouped together under their applicable Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) number and heading. This new edition also incorporates NACE classification and correlation tables. The second category again includes those UK and pan-national organisations which focus on specific, discrete industry sectors, which limits the number of organisational sources in the directory to those that are 'most worthwhile'.
