    #Neolithic textile production: a charred skein of linen thread, dating around 3200 BC, from the pile dwelling settlement of Nußdorf-Maurach, Überlingen, Lake Constance. The damp environment has preserved it in good condition
    The waterlogged, anaerobic environment provided ideal conditions for the preservation of organic materials such as textiles or wood.

    A charred skein of linen thread displayed upright in a museum case. The blackened, twisted fibers are tightly coiled and partially fused from burning, mounted between two smooth, pale stone supports. The exhibit is lit to highlight the texture and preservation of the ancient textile remains.
