ملاحظات	Fragment strip of woven silk/samite. Floral patterns of white on a red background. Motifs, including those that are floral, snowflake or star like, are placed across the fabric in a general geometric pattern. The edges have stitching holes running down the sides. One end is stained. Similar to 2201B-1900. Samite (twill woven silk) was thought to originate from Persia under Sassanian rule (AD224-651). It was commonly decorated with pairs of animals and birds and set in pearled lotus roundels. It is often found in Western burials, within church possessions and along the Silk Road. Byzantine weaving workshops took on the samite technique to make it an essential weave of the period. It was a luxury textile of the Middle Ages brought to Europe when the Crusades opened up direct contact with the East. It was forbidden to the middle classes of France under the sumptuary rules c. 1470.
