Only about fifty years ago did late antique fabrics begin to come out of Egypt, en livening and in many points greatly modifying our pictures of Roman and early Medieval life. It was not until about 300 A. D. that the Egyptians gave up the prac tice of mummification and began to bury their dead in the garments they had worn during their life time. Hundreds of these garments and thousands of textile fragments of the late Roman period have been preserved in the dry sands of Egypt, and have come down to us because of this fortunate climatic condition. It is often difficult to ascertain exactly the period of early textiles, lor fashions changed slowly, and the same materials and techniques and designs were used with but slight variation thru the centuries. In the case of Ar abic silk tapestries, however, the period can be exactly determined, for we have a number of speci- (Contiuutd on Page 1.). , , AMES GAM
