Printed fabrics have also been found in fostat, the old Cairo City. Recent excavations of Red Sea ports have also brought out a greater range of printed textiles. These date back to 800 A.D. Their technique and design point to a western Indian origin. Indian dyers had mastered the art of dyeing with fast colours from ancient times whereas in Europe this was unknown. Indian dyers were considered magicians by travellers, who saw them putting a white cloth into a pale liquid of indigo dye and when the cloth appeared from the dye bath it was still white. It was only when it came into contact with oxygen it became blue. Multiple immersions and exposure to the air enriched the colour. People felt that this was a magical as well as for home use. They also became important export items.
