← HistoryWhich consequence commonly resulted from excessive weighting during manually-powered Byzantine silk cloth production?
A)Accelerated spindle bearing wear
B)Uneven thread tension distribution✓
C)Irregular dye uptake uniformity
D)Increased static charge buildup
💡 Explanation
Uneven thread tension distribution occurs because over-weighting causes differential stretching during winding, affecting the uniformity mechanism. A uniform weave is achievable with consistent tension, therefore the answer is uneven tension rather than any changes in wear, dye, or charge accumulation associated primarily with other unrelated parameters.
