Excerpt from Peruvian Fabrics
This paper is the sequel to the preceding, entitled Peruvian Textiles. In that paper the necessary introductory discussion left little space for consideration of the actual fabrics. This omission has been in a measure remedied in the present work. Here the discussion is almost entirely de voted to the different techniques of weaves. When it is understood that this technology is very nearly as extensive as is that of today, it will be appreciated that within reasonable limits, an exhaustive discussion of each diion is impossible.
