Description: Raising Caring for Angora Goat by Lillian Vale Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description A unique and expensive breed, angora goats are prized for their gorgeous, silky mohair. Originating in what was formerly known as Angora, the Ankara area of Turkey, these goats have a long history that is intricately linked to both textile manufacturing and human civilization. Historical Origins Evidence suggests that Angora goats were domesticated around 10,000 years ago, coinciding with the domestication of sheep. The history of these animals spans many centuries. But the Ankara area of Turkey is probably where the selective breeding that resulted in the unique Angora breed that we know today started. The silky, glossy coats of these goats were highly desired for their ability to spin mohair, an opulent fiber recognized for its brightness, smoothness, and thermal qualities. Mohair: The Royaltys Cloth Mohair used to be so precious that only royalty and the wealthiest members of society could afford it at different points in history. To preserve a monopoly on the superior fiber, the manufacturing process was kept a closelyguarded secret, and exporting these goats from Turkey was banned for an extended period of time. Despite these limitations, mohair became more and more popular across Europe, especially among the nobility of France, who appreciated the fabrics gloss and smoothness.
