otiya loom, which I saw at work at the Coronation Exhibition inLondon in 1910, is now likewise in Bankfield Museum, and is fitted up for makingrugs or pile cloth. It is provided with a ball of weft instead of a spool of weft. Inother respects the two looms are similar. The length from beam to beam inclusivewas about 18 feet (about 5.5 m.), with continuous warp, and the angle of rise of thewarp from the weaver was somewhat under 30°.

The Bhotiya loom is evidently the same as that described by Moorcroft andTrebeck as being in use among the Northern Ladakis.1 The Igorot and Ilanunlooms are a step in advance of the Iban and Dusun and Bhotiya looms in so far thatthey possess reeds. An Igorot loom in the British Museum, obtained from Mount Isarog, Luzon,by Jagor (seeFig. 131), consists of a breast beam, two heading rods, one single heddle, a beater-in, two laze rods, a warp beam, four spools, and a wooden backstrap or yoke.
