This brief pictorial history is based on the 8 panels of the World History of Textiles published by ATIRA - Ahmedabad Textile Industry’s Research Association – at the time of its Silver Jubilee in 1974. We are grateful to ATIRA for permitting us to reproduce these panels on this portal for free access to all.
Efforts have been mounted to update this history by adding many more major developments that have occurred since 1974 up to 2005.
