Description (résumé)

Since 2006 the Italian Archaeological Expedition at Arslantepe (MAIAO) has been cooperating with the Danish National Research Foundation’s Centre for Textile Research (CTR) of the University of Copenhagen in the analyses of all textile tools discovered at Arslantepe. Our presentation reviews the textile production at Arslantepe through the analyses of direct and indirect evidence and the study of their archaeological contexts from the levels dating from the Late Chalcolithic 3-4 (3800-3350 BCE) to the Early Bronze Age I (3000-2750 BCE). From this long sequence more than 120 textile tools were recorded. The meticulous re-contextualisation of these findings combined with an interdisciplinary and experimental approach has allowed to start building up a new picture of the textile production and applied technologies at Arslantepe for these millennia. This picture also highly benefits of a diachronic approach that allows to identify elements of changes and continuity in the evolution and transformation of textile tools equipment in Eastern Anatolia.
