• Resumen

  •   The paper provides a short discussion on textile archaeology, including historiographical notes and the explanation of the latest textile tools’ methodology, and charts new research venues for the study of textile production in Portugal and Spain. The numerous and varied research themes within textile archaeology should make archaeologists rethink the central role of textiles in the ancient Mediterranean, and the wide range of new perspectives that their analysis can bring to the study of cultural, socioeconomic, and political aspects of ancient societies in Portugal and Spain.
