A good book on this subject is The Mummies Of Urumchi by Elizabeth Barber, a fabrics expert.

A very good book.

It's been a while since I read Barber's book, but didn't she reference older textiles with a similar weave (twill) from somewhere in the Middle East, IIRC Anatolia? But the color of the cloth wasn't plaid.
