-Did you know that the earliest people to wear clothing were not early modern Homo-
sapiens? It is speculated that clothing may have first been adopted by another
branch of the human family tree, the Neanderthals. Clothing and textiles have been
produced for a very long time, with some sources arguing that modern Homo-sapiens
have been clothing themselves in some form or fashion for circa 180,000 years. How
do we know this when few ancient textiles have survived to the modern age?

The discovery of the remains of clothing lice associated with ancient humans,
ancient stone and pottery figures that depict clothing, and tools such as needles and
loom weights, and other artifacts have all provided insight into what we once wore.
THE IMPORTANCE OF CLOTHING

• Clothing can insulate against cold or hot conditions, and it can provide a
hygienic barrier, keeping infectious and toxic materials away from the
body. It can protect feet from injury and discomfort or facilitate navigation
in varied environments. Clothing also provides protection from ultraviolet
radiation.
