A close-up of a charred bundle of blackened fibers wound tightly around a wooden stick. The fibers appear to be burnt and brittle. The object is placed on a reflective surface, creating a shadowy reflection. The background is stark white, contrasting sharply with the dark, textured object.

#Neolithic textile production: an amazing find! A charred spindle with a charred ball of flax thread.
Found in the pile dwelling settlement of Sipplingen-Osthafen, Lake Constance, dating 3316-3306 BC. The damp environment has preserved it in good condition.
