Weaving Circle in Duzce Temple Courtyard

by Naomi Williamson

Soft, diffused midday light floods a stone temple courtyard near Düzce, where a group gathers around backstrap looms. Heavy, dramatic clouds hang low above the ancient walls, casting shifting gray shadows across the woven fibers. Women sit on the rough ground, their hands moving rhythmically as they manipulate colorful threads stretched between wooden beams and their own bodies. The looms, constructed of natural wood and taut cords, stand out against the weathered stone floor. Seasonal changes are visible in the muted greens of nearby grass and the earthy tones of the clay pots scattered nearby. The scene pulses with focused activity under the vast, brooding sky, ending with a close-up of a frayed red thread catching the dim light.
