The book explores the links between mythology and weaving of the island of Savu and examines how textiles have formed the fabric of Savunese society throughout time. Ikat weavings of Savu are exceptional in the sense that they act as markers of historical events. They have a heraldic significance and can be "read" like a text. They also form a language expressing the socio-political structure of Savunese society. In this era of globalization and the resulting threat to small-scale societies it is the author's hope that this book will contribute to the protection of the work of traditional weavers and to the recognition of their unique cultural heritage.-from Amazon.

Weaving the Past offers a comprehensive and interdisciplinary history of Latin America's indigenous women. While the book concentrates on native women in Mesoamerica and the Andes, it covers indigenous people in other parts of South and Central America, including lowland peoples in and beyond Brazil, and Afro-indigenous peoples, such as the Garifuna, of Central America. Drawing on primary and secondary sources, it argues that change, not continuity, has been the norm for indigenous peoples whose resilience in the face of complex and long-term patterns of cultural change is due in no small part to the roles, actions, and agency of women. The book provides broad coverage of gender roles in native Latin America over many centuries, drawing upon a range of evidence from archaeology, anthropology, religion, and politics. Primary and secondary sources include chronicles, codices, newspaper articles, and monographic work on specific regions. Arguing that Latin America's indigenous women were the critical force behind the more important events and processes of Latin America's history, Kellogg interweaves the region's history of family, sexual, and labor history with the origins of women's power in prehispanic, colonial, and modern South and Central America. Shying away from interpretations that treat women as house bound and passive, the book instead emphasizes women's long history of performing labor, being politically active, and contributing to, even supporting, family and community well-being.

Excerpt from The History and Principles of Weaving by Hand and by Power The Art of Weaving forms the most extensive and im portant part of the Textile Manufactures, whether considered on account of its commercial value or for its usefulness, variety, or beauty of its products. It also calls forth a greater number of mechanical appliances and ingenious contrivances than any other Art, and is on that account alone always a source of interest to the Engineer and the Mechanician, as well as to the Manufacturer and the Weaver. Formerly the Art depended almost entirely upon the handicraft skill of the weaver, and his contrivances were limited in their combinations to produce designs of any considerable extent. They were, also, cumbersome and complicated, and entailed an amount of labour and patience that would much astonish the weaver of the present day. But, by the introduction of the Jacquard Machine and the Power Loom during the present century, the whole system of weaving, with some few exceptions, has been changed, and practically become a New Art. During the same period the Lace Frame has been in vented, and by the application of the Jacquard apparatus to it for the production of figured lace, it has created an entirely new and important branch of manufacture. The numerous inventions that have led to this result seem to have culminated in this admirable machine, which for ingenuity is unsurpassed in the whole range of mechanism. Yet the Loom with its products, wherein the wealth of our Nation is folded up, and upon which we are so de pendent for personal comfort, health, and cleanliness, is far behind other important Arts and Manufactures in respect to treatises upon its varied processes. The few works that have appeared are intended for technical readers, and are either confined to certain branches of the Art or limited in extent, and do not treat upon the subject generally. To supply this deficiency is the object of the present work, which is based upon and includes a series of Articles written for the Proprietors of Engineering.
