Paile

Paile
PAILE, PALE
A term used from the 11th to the 14th century for fabric of rich quality used for dresses, cloaks, coats of arms, seat covers, awnings, flags and other purposes. It is mentioned as from Alexandria, Egypt, Spain, Sagrad, Damascus, India, and many other places, so because of this widespread mention it may have been a collective term applied indiscriminately to cloth of gold, samit, siglaton, etc. It is also possibly identical with the English " pall" referring to a cloth used for covering.
