中文翻译与英英解释 | a heavy silk fabric (often woven with silver or gold threads); used to make clothing in the Middle Ages
|
Samite was a luxurious and heavy silk fabric worn in the Middle Ages, of a twill-type weave, often including gold or silver thread. The word was derived from Old French samit, from medieval Latin samitum, examitum deriving from the Byzantine Greek ?ξ?μιτον hexamiton "six threads", usually interpreted as indicating the use of six yarns in the warp. |
