This rare burial textile, distinguished by its intricate looped weave and decorative woven bands, offers valuable insight into prehistoric textile craftsmanship and mortuary practices.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To document this fragile artefact, the team applied two complementary digital methods.&nbsp;Photogrammetry&nbsp;was used to create&nbsp;an accurate&nbsp;high-resolution 3D model, preserving the textile\u2019s geometry, texture, and&nbsp;colour. In parallel,&nbsp;Reflectance Transformation Imaging (RTI)&nbsp;enabled the detailed recording of subtle surface features, such as weave patterns, depressions, and traces of use, which are not easily visible to the naked eye.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The&nbsp;digitisation&nbsp;of the&nbsp;Lefkandi&nbsp;textile contributes to its long-term preservation and digital accessibility, supporting future research and advancing innovative approaches to textile heritage documentation within the&nbsp;TEXTaiLES&nbsp;project.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-3a88641f wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/textailes-eccch.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG_0571.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-505\" srcset=\"https:\/\/textailes-eccch.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG_0571.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/textailes-eccch.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG_0571-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/textailes-eccch.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG_0571-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/textailes-eccch.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG_0610-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-507\" srcset=\"https:\/\/textailes-eccch.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG_0610-1.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/textailes-eccch.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG_0610-1-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/textailes-eccch.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG_0610-1-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/textailes-eccch.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG_0607-1-rotated.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-509\" srcset=\"https:\/\/textailes-eccch.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG_0607-1-rotated.jpg 768w, https:\/\/textailes-eccch.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG_0607-1-225x300.jpg 225w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As part of the&nbsp;TEXTaiLES&nbsp;project, a&nbsp;digitisation&nbsp;campaign was carried out at the&nbsp;Archaeological Museum of&nbsp;Chalkis&nbsp;Arethousa, focusing on a remarkable 10th-century BCE textile find from&nbsp;Lefkandi.
