University of California Berkeley Regional Oral History Office University of California The Bancroft Library Berkeley, California Fiber Arts Oral History Series Kay Sekimachi THE WEAVER'S WEAVER: EXPLORATIONS IN MULTIPLE LAYERS AND THREE-DIMENSIONAL FIBER ART With an Introduction by Signe Mayfield Interviews Conducted by Harriet Nathan in 1993 Copyright 1996 by The Regents of the University of California Since 1954 the Regional Oral History Office has been interviewing leading participants in or well-placed witnesses to major events in the development of Northern California, the West, and the Nation. Oral history is a modern research technique involving an interviewee and an informed interviewer in spontaneous conversation. The taped record is transcribed, lightly edited for continuity and clarity, and reviewed by the interviewee. The resulting manuscript is typed in final form, indexed, bound with photographs and illustrative materials, and placed in The Bancroft Library at the University of California, Berkeley, and other research collections for scholarly use. Because it is primary material, oral history is not intended to present the final, verified, or complete narrative of events. It is a spoken account, offered by the interviewee in response to questioning, and as such it is reflective, partisan, deeply involved, and irreplaceable. ************************************ All uses of this manuscript are covered by a legal agreement between The Regents of the University of California and Kay Sekimachi dated April 16, 1995.

Keynote Address—Summary Notes San Francisco Bay as the Fountainhead and Wellspring Jack Lenor Larsen Jack Lenor Larsen led off the 9th Biennial Symposium of the Textile Society of America in Oakland, California, with a plenary session directed to TSA members and conference participants. He congratulated us, even while proposing a larger and more inclusive vision of our field, and exhorting us to a more comprehensive approach to fiber. His plenary remarks were spoken extemporaneously from notes and not recorded. We recognize that their inestimable value deserves to be shared more broadly; Jack has kindly provided us with his rough notes for this keynote address. The breadth of his vision, and his insightful comments regarding fiber and art, are worthy of thoughtful consideration by all who concern themselves with human creativity. On the Textile Society of America Larsen proffered congratulations on the Textile Society of America, now fifteen years old. -

Tooth-Tool Use and Yarn Production in Norse Greenland
TOOTH -TOOL USE AND YARN PRODUCTION IN NORSE GREENLAND G. Richard Scott University of Nevada Reno, Department of Anthropology/MS 096, Reno, NV 89557; [email protected] Ruth Burgett Jolie Department of Anthropology, University of New Mexico ABSTRACT During a dental study of medieval Norse skeletons from Greenland, Iceland, and Norway, a distinct pattern of wear was observed on twenty-two anterior teeth of twelve Greenlanders. Further examina- tion revealed that cultural notches were limited almost exclusively to settlement-period Greenlandic females interred at Thjodhild’s church ad( 1000–1150). The most likely explanation for this patterned wear revolves around the manner in which females manipulated woolen thread on their maxillary in- cisors and canines during the production of a coarse woolen cloth (frieze) that was generated in large amounts during the early medieval period for local consumption and export to Europe. keywords: teeth, abrasion, wool INTRODUCTION Anthropologists have long studied normal crown wear to As the most directly visible aspect of the skeletal sys- evaluate the diet and dietary behavior of earlier human tem, teeth are also subject to the vagaries of human cultur- populations (Hinton 1981, 1982; Kieser et al. 2001; Molnar al behavior (cf.

Azerbaijani Ritual Shadda Carpets As Guarder of the People's Oral Heritage
Azerbaijani Ritual Shadda Carpets as Guarder of the People’s Oral Heritage By Roya Taghiyeva Doctor of Arts Director of Azerbaijani Carpet State Museum Baku, Azerbaijan [email protected] Paper presented for the conference "Can Oral History Make Objects Speak?", Nafplion, Greece. October 18-21, 2005. ____________________________________________________________________ During a history of any people, there has developed the field of art in which its rich spiritual world is reflected. Such art embodies typical features of a nation’s character, intellect, world out-looking, aesthetics and philosophy. For Azerbaijani people, this kind of art is carpet making the origin of which goes back the very ancient times. Figuratively, any place where an Azerbaijani spread his carpet became his home. He used it to cover and decorate his home inside and outside. Carpets served him as furniture. He hung them on walls and spread on the floor. He used it as a bag on his road. He made of them both clothing and horsecloth. He protected his horse with the carpet when it was cold and hot. As a matter of fact, Azerbaijani was born and buried on the carpet. At the same time, colourfully patterned carpets were intended to feast his eyes. According to archaeological findings, as early about 2000 B.C. the population of Azerbaijan could make various household items from carpet fabric distinguished with their high technological and artistic dignity. In the 5 century B.C, Xenophont described customs of using carpets in everyday life by Azerbaijani people. Herodot ___________________________________________________________________________________ ICME papers 2005 1 http://icme.icom.museum mentioned the ability of Azerbaijanis to make a wide range of colours from plant dyes.
