- African_textiles abstract "Some of the oldest surviving African textiles were discovered at the archaeological site of Kissi in northern Burkina Faso. They are made of wool or fine animal hair in a weft-faced plain weave pattern. Further cloth fragments and parchment fragments date to the 9th century CE from sites at Igbo Ukwu of the Igbo people of Nigeria. A considerable amount of cotton and wool textiles (clothes, shrouds and accessories) have been preserved in the Tellem caves in Mali, dating mainly to the 11th to 13th centuries CE. Some fragments have also survived from the 13th century CE Benin City in Nigeria.The knowledge of weaving and fabric production has existed for centuries throughout the continent. During the Trans-Atlantic slavery, many skilled weavers were taken, and took their knowledge along with them to North America, South America and the Caribbean. Some examples of African textiles are the following:Akwete cloth -woven by Igbo peopleUkara dyed indigo cloth by Igbo peopleAso oke fabric - woven by Yoruba peopleAdire- tie-dye produced by Yoruba peopleKente cloth - woven by Ashanti and Ewe peopleBarkcloth - produced by the Buganda tribeMudcloth- produced by the Bambara tribeKitenge - produced from Kenya and other regions of East AfricaShweshwe – produced in South Africa↑ ↑".
