Niffty to see the article by G. M. A. Richter about silk and classical Greece get some exposure at LacusCurtius . Her argument would seem to be even stonger given some of the recent finds of silk fibers in fairly early Egyptian mummies. OT, but Richter was certainly a prodigoius writer, she has something like 400 articles in JSTOR alone and a book list of impresive length to boot...
