Vävtyngd
Vävtyngder är släta hålförsedda vikter av lera eller sten som är ganska vanliga fynd på boplatser från järnåldern och medeltiden i Nordeuropa. Särskilt i nedbrända hus bevaras de bra eftersom eldsvådan kan omvandla lertyngderna till keramik. Ofta finner man dem i grophus.
Vävning i stående vävstolar
Vävtyngderna ingick i den varptyngda väven och hängdes i nedre änden av på varptrådarna. Järnålderns textilhantverk förefaller ha varit en utpräglad kvinnosyssla, vilket innebär att vävtyngderna är ett viktigt källmaterial i studiet av kvinnors vardagliga arbete.[1]
Vävstolarna stod upprätt vilket var en av förutsättningarna för behovet av vävtyngder.[2] Det finns en uppsats som behandlar vävtyngder hittade i Birkas garnison.[3]
Vävtyngder finns inte bara från järnåldern utan är också vanliga från bronsåldern[4]

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 methcd of inserting the pileis shown in Fig. 130. It may be likened to that of a heddle with very thick three-plyleashes, which gets overtaken by the weaving and is left two picks behind, afterwhich the rod is withdrawn and the upstanding loops cut along the whole length, 1 A like form of spool is found on the Sermata loom already mentioned.

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.
