Russia, Moscow, 1998. Dimensions: 20,9x29,6 cm. Museum: State Hermitage, St. Petersburg. Author: Dmitry Prigov.Textile fragment ca. 6th century A.D. Sasanian These textile fragments are made of wool and cotton, and are decorated with bands of red rosettes and blue squares. They are made using a weft-faced tabby weave, such that the colored decorations are reversed when viewed from the back. This is known as a zilu, a type of Iranian carpet first attested in the 8th century A.D. Yet these fragments, which were excavated at Shahr-i Qumis in northern Iran, date to the 6th century A.D. and are thus the earliest known zilu carpet.Shahr-i Qumis has been identified as the ancient city of Hecatompylos, established by the Parthians as their capital by about 200 B.C. However, these fragments come from Room 23 at Site VI, which was seemingly converted into a burial chamber during the 6th century A.D., a date indicated by a coin of the Sasanian king Hormizd IV (reigned A.D. 579-590). The human remains discovered there consist of disarticulated bones, which is in keeping with Zoroastrian burial practice. YeCampania Caserta Capua Museo Campano59.
