Reconstruction of an ancient vertical weaving loom used by people of the Cucuteni-Trypillia culture (appr. 4800-3000 B.C.). You can see simple loom weights made of clay that served to hold the warp threads taut on a loom. Also, a stick serves as a shuttle. The loom is very primitive, but just imagine, this construction is at least 5,000 years old. It’s from Ukraine, Vinnytsia Regional Museum of Local History.
