Resumen

The Iranian-speaking scribes of the Sasanian dynasty (AD 224-651) in south-western Iran, heirs of the Aramaic administration of the Achaemenid and Parthian Empires, continued using Aramaic words as logograms. Among more than one thousand Aramaic logograms in Middle Persian, only one belongs to the terminology of textiles, Aramaic <LBWŠYA>, designating Middle Persian warr “wool,” the rest of the textile terms are only attested in their phonographic form. This fact, however, cannot lead us to assume that the phonographic textile terms were incorporated much later to the Middle Persian vocabulary.
