— Ursula K. Le Guin, from “A Rant About ‘Technology’”
#textiles#textiles are technology#smithing#seriously we refer to stages of human society based on their metallurgy#I wonder if anyone’s really done the same with textiles#granted it’s hard to directly study the textiles because they degrade#but you could study the tools#I wonder how textiles advances and smithing advances correlate
