Every Wednesday morning John G (the Castle Manager) convenes a castle meeting, usually in the Castle tearooms near the coffee machine. Last week most of the time was spent double checking our planning checklists for the History Festival weekend. John asked “where is the hessian? Who last saw it?”... Silence. We hoped Sally who runs the gift shop might know. However, she said she hoped Paul Barker the gardener might know where the rolls were. He replied he did not. John thought safer to order some more whilst we found it. Hessian is incredibly useful. We use it to disguise the unsightly parts of tents and at Christmas it wraps around the large buckets in which we plant the Christmas trees. For the history festival weekend, it goes round the camel area and in front of the bookshelves in the library in just the same way as it was used during World War One when the castle was a hospital. It also helps to disguise the boring plastic tables in the History of Flight tent. I am very fond of the camels, Max and Cleo. They were on parade last year for the Tutankhamun Weekend and I think it is wonderful that they will be here again, this time representing the role of the Camel corps in WW2. During WW2 camels saw action during military skirmishes as well as being used to transport the wounded through the deserts to hospital. Hessian is also known as jute, one of the most affordable natural fibres. It likes warm wet climates and grows in low lying plains and standing water in countries such as Bangladesh where it is called the "golden fibre " for its colour and value to local communities. Jute plants have a high biomass in that they absorb large amounts of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. They also require very little fertiliser, are pest-resistant and the resulting crop is very durable. This makes it a sustainable and very eco-friendly choice for a variety of products ranging from sacking, agricultural wrapping cloth, sandbags, cordage to cloth backing for flooring or pulp for paper production. Jute seeds are planted between April and May and are harvested between July and August by which time they are 10 to 12 feet high with a cylindrical stalk that is about as thick as a finger. Once the plants reach maturity, they are harvested by cutting the stem close to the ground and allowing the plants to dry in the sun. Jute uses the fibres of the plant, which in their natural state are held together by gummy materials, and have to be softened and dissolved so the dried plants are then “retted”. This a process in which the fibres are separated from the stem by allowing them to decompose in water. This takes between 10–30 days after which the fibres are washed, dried, sorted, graded and ready to be used. I knew something about jute as I went to St Andrews university and just 14 miles to the north is the city of Dundee. The very first ship to bring jute directly to Dundee arrived in 1840 and throughout much of the nineteenth century, some 50 000 people (half the working population of the city) were employed directly in the jute industry. More were involved in subsidiary industries. After WW2, however, factories in India took over the manufacturing and today the jute industry has completely disappeared from Dundee. Jute has been used for centuries. In ancient Egypt, it was used to make a variety of products including ropes, sandals, and mats. The Roman author Pliny recorded that jute plants were also used as food in ancient Egypt. There is still is a popular soup made with minced jute leaves cooked with ground coriander, garlic and stock, along with rice and chicken or, more traditionally, rabbit. It is called Molokhia and made throughout much of Africa and the Middle East but the origins of the dish are said to be in ancient Egypt. In both Buddhism and Hinduism, jute has been considered as a sacred and auspicious material, used to make the traditional saree garment worn during Hindi ceremonies and festivals. It is also used in religious ceremonies and rituals in Buddhist temples. Such a long and multi-stranded history for a fabric we all rather take for granted.
