Sažetak
This paper presents an overview of textile tool finds from two Early Iron Age sites in northern Croatia. Through the results of the analysis shown here, the goal is to present the current state of research in textile production of the Early Iron Age Požega Valley. About 200 finds in total, coming from both settlement and funerary context, can give insight into a new topic in prehistoric archaeology in Croatia. Analysis of a diverse range of shapes and sizes of loom- weights, spindle whorls and spools, suggests that the site of Kaptol was a settlement where textile was widely produced. Diversity within textile tools suggests that the woven textile came in different sizes and that it was produced from different yarn qualities, which reflects the creativity and innovation in textile production of the Hallstatt world. Discovery of a fragment of a burned wooden beam with three oblique, oval holes, located next to a loom-weight set could indicate remains of a loom. Its position within the settlement provides opportunity to study textile production processes in more detail. On the other hand, spindle whorls and loom- weights also appear as grave goods where they might be seen as gender indicators with important symbolic value. Difference in their type and number in individual graves could have reflected differences in social status. However, it could also be related to different levels of skills and specialization within the process of textile production. If that is the case, the process of textile production itself had symbolic value in the Early Iron Age Croatia.
