Thank you for any other excellent post. Where else may anyone get that kind of information in such an ideal manner of writing?
I have a presentation next week, and I’m at the look for
such information.

Desert. Sun. Fading. Not hard to achieve. I left a red tee shirt on a branch for a summer, it turned pink with exposure. So this was possible, and desirable. Consider that it was a rare color, and took time to achieve, which added to its value. Was there not also a mollusk that dies blue?

Given the distance between cities and their dyers, variations among source material and skillsets, the discussion is really not about what colors were actually produced and displayed across the land and its People, but what color was the goal the dyers were trying to achieve. It’s not as though color-wheels from Ace Hardware were available. Consider that variations (rather than deviations) in color were similar to variations in regional dialects, true then as it is today.
