The paper investigates several archaeological finds connected to the textile and leather manufacturing processes. The instrumenta were recovered during the excavation of the Amba Aradam station of the Metro C line in Rome. All tools found are made of organic material. They are preserved in relatively good conditions, thanks to the permanently wet or humid and anoxic context of deposition. The artifacts (e.g. brush, combs, needles, blade shears) have been recovered in a secondary position, within pits dated just before of the establishment of the barracks, during the Trajan age. For the first time, this study gives an overview on the activities carried out on the site before the establishment of the barracks and the implements involved in the production processes. Furthermore, microscopic investigations were carried out in order to characterize the materials used for the manufacture of the tools.

Abstract

The paper investigates several archaeological finds connected to the textile and leather manufacturing processes. The instrumenta were recovered during the excavation of the Amba Aradam station of the Metro C line in Rome. All tools found are made of organic material. They are preserved in relatively good conditions, thanks to the permanently wet or humid and anoxic context of deposition. The artifacts (e.g. brush, combs, needles, blade shears) have been recovered in a secondary position, within pits dated just before of the establishment of the barracks, during the Trajan age. For the first time, this study gives an overview on the activities carried out on the site before the establishment of the barracks and the implements involved in the production processes. Furthermore, microscopic investigations were carried out in order to characterize the materials used for the manufacture of the tools.
