Abstract

An undated specimen, which consists of yarns prepared for being fixed to a loom and comes from the south coast of Peru, is reported. The unusual features of the specimen are its length of 107 ft. and some supplementary yarns which are interpreted as heddles in preparation, for which the possible steps are reconstructed.
