介绍（中）	这个棉纺织碎片在其技术中使用了木版印刷，在片段的中心显示出来，并显示了木版印刷设计的水平错位。采用类似沙姆萨图案的设计平移成较小的卷须，将奖章相互连接。该图案可能被重复以装饰较大纺织品的中心区域，该纺织品被包围在边框内，其中一部分可以在碎片的右上角看到。这块碎片可追溯到 13 世纪或 14 世纪，是在埃及富斯塔特（称为旧开罗）发现但在印度古吉拉特邦制造的一大类纺织品之一。纺织品的鲜艳染料在这个片段中仍然很明显，突出了古吉拉特邦几个世纪以来作为重要的染料中心，并证明从十世纪到十九世纪，印度洋连接的地区对它们的需求量很大。
介绍（英）	This cotton textile fragment uses block-print in its technique which is revealed in the fragment’s center and shows a horizontal misalignment of the block-printed design. The design which employs a shamsa-like motif pans out into smaller tendrils that link the medallions to one another. The pattern was probably repeated to decorate the center field of the larger textile which was enclosed within a border, a portion of which can be seen in the fragment’s top right. Dated to either the thirteenth or fourteenth century, this fragment is one of a larger group of textiles which were found in Fustat, Egypt (known as Old Cairo) but made in Gujarat, India. The textile’s vibrant dye, which is still noticeable in this fragment highlights Gujarat as an important dye center throughout the centuries and serves as evidence that they were in high demand across regions connected by the Indian Ocean from the tenth through the nineteenth centuries.
