Cover Story: The art of Palestinian embroidery (tatreez) is recognised by UNESCO as part of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity and serves as powerful symbol of Palestinian national identity. Since the displacement of millions of Palestinians in 1948 and amid ongoing political challenges, studying and preserving Palestinian traditional knowledge and cultural heritage is extremely important. In this study, dye analysis of two Palestinian garments from the British Museum’s collection showcases how the identification of synthetic dyes can help refine the production dates of historical textiles. The continued use of local natural dyes long after the introduction of synthetic alternatives is testament to the complex dynamics behind the evolution of textile-making practices and the integration of imported materials in this region and beyond.
