The main purpose of this study is to examine the prohibitions related to coil sewing and weaving in South Wollo. The primary reasons for the study are its limitations in this regard, the existence of benefits, and practical problems. The type of study is qualitative, and the approach is ethnographic. The study found that while prohibition discourses are generally carried out with good intentions, they play both a negative and a positive role. Prohibitions play a major role in teaching and maintaining the existing customs of society. Psychologically, the study indicated that they have the role of protecting the speakers and society from threats, and fear. In terms of the economy, the fact that they hurt economic income by opposing the desire to change, the freedom of work, and choice are themes that are mentioned negatively. The study shows that the prohibitions are based on words, actions, contexts, and actual events, and their representation is mostly symbolic and logical. In a nutshell, it is suggested by the researcher that it is possible to create strategies that can be changed into positive ideas in a community-oriented manner and that continuous research should be conducted in this regard
