In a first approach to the textile epigraphy of the chivalric romances, the origin of the practice of inscribing texts in textiles in the Islamic tradition (tiraz) is traced and types of artifacts with inscriptions are identified: textile architecture (tents) and textile furnishings (beds), insignia (flags and banners) and personal clothing. The interrelations between the material (textile object) and the texts (symbols, mottos, messages) are analyzed, the inscription is examined from an epigraphic approach as exposed writing, and its function in the narrative plot of various books is examined.
