Field notes & catalogue basis

What changes when place, local naming and loom practice change?

Regional attribution remains object-specific: direct locality, broad-region attribution and under-review origin are kept visibly different.

This v3 book is an editorial research route. Object-level technique, dating and provenance remain on each textile record; pattern-name provenance is stored separately in the Pattern Catalog.
