Damasks used one of the five basic weaving techniques of the Byzantine and Islamic weaving centres of the early Middle Ages, and derive their name from the city of Damascus, which at the time was a large city active in both trading, as part of the silk roadand manufacture. Damasks were scarce after the ninth century outside of Islamic Spain, but were revived in some places in the thirteenth century.The damask rose or Rosa damascena are also commonly known as the Rose of Castile. These roses are very famous of their characteristic fine fragrance.The damask rose is basically a hybrid of two types of roses namely Rosa gallica and Rosamoschata.The petals of the damask rose are purplish pink in color and the flower as a whole is a cluster of many petals.The damask flowers are cultivated commonly for their special rose oil which is used in perfumes and rose water.The petals of damask are used to flavor foods and to make tea as they are safe for human consumption.
