When was the Navajo rug first created?

The oldest surviving wool Navajo weaving comes from 1805 fund on vitims of an attach in Conyon del Muerto. It is thought they were weaving in wool by the mid 1600s. Sheep arrive in the late 1500s. The period of Navajo weaving from 1650 to 1865 is called the Classic period. Before that the people of the southwest wove in cotton, apocynum (Indian hemp), yucca leaf fiber, fur, and feather cord. It is unknown when the Navajo started weaving. It is thought they learned from the Pueblo people. Cotton cloth was a major trade good in the pre 1492 time period. By 1700 the Navajo weaving was much in demand by the Spanish. Textiles do not survive as well as pottery or other artifacts.


Who did the Navajo adopt their pottery and weaving from?

It is thought that they adopted and vastly elaborated on surrounding Pueblo people's weaving technology. Among the Navajo the women weave and among the Hopi the men weave. The pottery is not really like Pueblo pottery and not as elaborate and typically not decorated. Perhaps they got the idea from the Pueblo people but it is not clear. They have some Pueblo elements in the archeological record. The Navajo say that Spider Woman taught them weaving.
