Some archaeological finds potentially related to wool production and its processing come from the province of Brescia.
A relevant number of tools probably used for sheep shearing found in the sites of mountain valleys and in the southern lowlands can be counted among them.
Spinning tools are mainly rappresented by spindle whorls whose weight could be functional for the production of medium or medium-large yarn. All spinning tools are often discovered in funerary areas of the territory.
The catalogued loom-weights are recorded especially in the south-eastern plain and come from territorial settlements identified as probable rustic buildings or villae. Most of the collected loom-weights are shaped like a truncated pyramid with a round head and they also reveal a very high weight perhaps connected to the production of heavy wool fabrics.
Finally stone loom-weights have been documented in settlements subject to the process of Romanization and located only in Valle Camonica
