Research Abstract |
In this research, information obtained in previous researches was studied fundamentally in order to elucidate such questions as what techniques are employed in manufacturing textiles and how labor related with such techniques is distributed and transmitted. Although attempt was made, particularly, to comprehensively cover documents related with textiles, it has become clear that continuous investigation is necessary to examine their contents closely and to make reference to other materials. This is because accounts in these documents need to be examined while taking into consideration such factors as the differences in the persons responsible for the skills and the finished products.In other words, elucidation of a system of production known as "division of labor" is indispensable in understanding the nature of textile techniques. The author will utilize data accumulated in this research to continue study of topics that have not yet been covered.
