Conical and pyramidal clay weights from the Bronze Age settlement at Dragomelj (cf. Figs. 212, 216). Such items are common finds in the settlements of the Bronze and Iron Ages. Depictions from the Iron Age suggest they served as loom weight (Fig. 217). Figural depictions further show that people in Europe have been weaving textiles since the Neolithic (Figs. 161–164). Even in those early times, they were familiar with flax, which together with wool was the commonest raw material for textiles.
