Full text | Abstract: Archaeological textiles are usually only fragmentarily preserved, colourless, and thus hard to appreciate and understand, even for specialists. Producing replicas of archaeological textile finds can be done on a loom. However, this approach is not always possible. This paper presents a new approach consisting in the application of computer graphics methods for the reconstruction of archaeological textiles on the basis of detailed structural and physicochemical analysis. Methods visualising different types of textile structures are described. They were applied to exemplary textile finds from the Roman period found during excavations in the area of Poland |
