Paracas textile : ウィキペディア英語版 | Paracas textile
The Paracas textiles were found at a necropolis in Peru in the 1920s. The necropolis held 420 bodies who had been mummified and wrapped in embroidered textiles in 200–300 BCE〔 The examples in the British Museum show flying shamans who hold severed heads by their hair.〔 ==Description== These textiles were made by South American people before the rise of the Inca or the Aztecs. They are brightly coloured and show evidence of both a design and a style. The subject of these images are supernatural creatures or shamans who use their hands to hold severed human heads whilst their wings transport them like birds. These could be intended to represent being carried to the next world by spirits or that these figures represent the spirits themselves.〔(Paracas textile ), British Museum, accessed 27 September 2010〕 The people who created these textiles had a complex society. There is evidence of pottery, fishing, and farming. There were craftspeople who could make knives from Obsidian, jewellery from gold〔 as well as understanding all the complexities of weaving.
