Apparently it was manufactured in India and from there traded into Palestine by the first century, there were routes of this kind of textiles to Petra by that time.
Europeans took centuries to be able to develop the necessary technology to make this same kind of cloths, but they were very well known in middle east by the first century.
The Shroud original material was just linen, before all the ulterior repairs and reweaven. If this might be Medieval European most likely should be cottom or wool or a mixture of both.
Joseph of Arimatae, who provided the shroud of Christ described in the gospels, was a wealthy member of the Jewish Sanhedrin, he had all the economic means to buy something like this in Jerusalem Market for his own burial.
