Abstract
190
It is a piece of linen woven by hand, on a vertical loom, where the threads have also been spun by hand. Although macroscopically it appears to be in a good state of conservation, the microscopic study reveals a contamination by microorganisms, so it is advisable to improve the conditions of conservation, to avoid the progression of its deterioration with the passage of time.
It presents a certain degree of inorganic contamination, due mostly to particles formed by calcite idiomorphic crystals, derived from an initial contamination with lime that, over time, ends up evolving in situ to calcium carbonate. We also find quartz particles (round and angular) and microcrystals of salt.
The conclusions lead us to establish that we are faced with an ancient and affected fabric of biodegradation, which has resided in an underground space within a desert climate environment.
