The University of Michigan excavations of Karanis, a Graeco-Roman period site in Egypt, yielded a wide range of textiles that are currently under comprehensive study. This illustrated book is the catalogue of a Kelsey Museum of Archaeology exhibition that documents a selection of textiles from the Michigan Karanis excavations, along with the processes of their manufacture, their place in the culture and society of Graeco-Roman Egypt and their archaeological contexts.
