Specifikacia Weavings of Nomads in Iran Mushkat Fred
- This is the first book devoted exclusively to the hand-woven bands made by the nomadic peoples of Iran- The publication features many previously unpublished weavings of great art-historical and anthropological importance There is a rich tradition of hand-woven bands made by the nomadic pastoralists of Iran. They have a large and detailed design vocabulary and were executed using weaving skills that were not exceeded by any other weaving tradition. No study of nomadic life and weavings in Iran is complete without them. Among Qashqa'i tribal weavers in particular, the warp-faced bands used to attach loads to pack animals were a key symbol of their nomadic life. These bands carry a large repository of motifs that may be a source of archaic design elements. Bands illustrate a connection between and among groups of nomadic pastoralists, as great distances may have separated their ancestors
