Armenian Textile Terminology

Birgit Anette Olsen · 2017

Catalogue summary

A lexical study of Classical Armenian textile terms separates inherited Indo-European words for basic fibers and techniques from Iranian vocabulary for advanced production, clothing, and ornament.

Why this matters

The distribution of Parthian, Syriac, and Greek loans ties craft terminology to Arsacid rule, Christianization, and long-term cultural exchange.
