Description
English: One fascinating Persian Textile is the Shroud of Saint-Josse (English Joyce). It is a Persian Silk Samite cloth dating to Circa 960. I get that date because the cloth is inscribed “blessing and happiness be upon Chief Abû Mansûr Bukhtekin, may Allah extend his years”. We know that Abû Mansûr Bukhtekin was a Turkish general aka Emir who was executed for rebellion in 961.
Date Made circa 960 AD
