Searching my 'Photos' for something else that happened near the dawn of time, I found a set of videos from 2011 featuring an indigo fermentation vat built following the instructions in J. N. Liles' 'The Art and Craft of Natural Dyeing: Traditional Recipes for Modern Use'.
Liles' 'Fermentation Vat No. 4: Saxon Vat' (p.86 in my paperback copy) is based on his wife Dales' theory that the organic matter (suint, skin flakes, manure, dust) in an unscoured fleece might be sufficient to support bacterial fermentation to reduce or eliminate oxygen in an indigo vat. Liles found confirmation of this in J M Matthews Application of Dyestuffs to Textile, Paper, Leather and Other Materials: https://archive.org/details/applicationofd...
"This is one of the earliest forms of Indigo dyeing in Europe, and is still practiced in the same primitive manner by the peasants of Saxony, where the celebrated Saxon blue is dyed." [Note that this is not the 'Saxon Blue' dyed using sulphuric acid to make indigo sulfonate, which I wrote about here: https://wroot.blog/2016/12/17/ethel-mairet...
I was clearly so thrilled by the results (both smell and dye) of this Saxon vat that I filmed it.
