A Study on the knitting techniques in archeological site of Shahr-e- sokhta

Throughout antiquity, weaving has been considered as one of the most important occupations and as a major cultural and social industry.This article, which is a descriptive and analytical research and its qualitative data has been collected through the method of library research, has been organized with the aim of providing an overview of the Bronze Age weaving method in the southeast of the Iranian plateau and is an effort. In order to answer the question, what methods and techniques have been used in weaving the Shahr-e- sokhta? In order to achieve this goal, the required data and information have been extracted from previous sources and researches and have been qualitatively analyzed until scientific results are obtained. The results of studies show that the previous classifications related to various weaving methods and techniques in the Shahr-e- sokhta have major problems and according to the available evidence, the possibility of large production workshops in the ancient site of Shahr-e- sokhta is strengthened. The proposed classification for the types of Shahr-e- sokhta fabrics based on the weaving method will be changed into three general categories: blur-weft knitting, circular knitting and non-weaving. In the burnt city fabrics, which have been produced by the weaving-weaving method, the weaving of warp and weft threads has been done with the help of different techniques and with various designs.
