Abstract:

This article presents a proposal for the general classification of loom weights used as elements of the warp-weighted loom, which is the oldest and longest used tool for the production of fabrics. Loom weights entail that loom’s only archaeologically perceptible remains. Despite this, they do not enjoy the particular interest of Polish researchers, which is reflected in their lack of typological systematization. This article aims to correct this state of affairs.
