Wikipedia-Article "Basketry"

Basket weaving (or basket making, basketry, or basketmaking) is the process of weaving unspun vegetable fibres into a basket. People with the profession of weaving baskets are basketmakers.

Erdly reports[1] that the oldest known baskets are (according to radiocarobon dating) between 10,000 and 12,000 years old, earlier than any established dates for archaological finds of pottery, and were discovered in Faiyum in upper Egypt. Other baskets have been discovered in the Middle East that are up to 7,000 years old.

Erdly classifies basketry into five types:

  • "Coiled" basketry, using grasses and rushes
  • "Plaiting" basketry, using materials that are wide and ribbon-like, such as palms or yucca
  • "Twining" basketry, using materials from roots and tree bark
  • "Wicker" and "Splint" basketry, using reed, cane, willow, oak, and ash
[edit]

Native American basket weaving

Native Americans in New England wove their baskets from swamp ash. The wood would be peeled off the felled log in strips, following the growth rings of the tree.[2]
