when was the first piece of clothing invented
Clothing There is no easy way to determine when clothing was first developed, but some information has been inferred by studying lice which estimates put the introduction of clothing at roughly 42,000â€“72,000 years ago.[1][2][3][4] [5]
Trousers There is some evidence, from figurative art, of trousers being worn in the Upper Paleolithic, as seen on the figurines found at the Siberian sites of Mal'ta and Buret'.[5] The oldest known trousers are found at the Yanghai cemetery, extracted from mummies in Turpan, Xinjiang, western China, belonging to the Eastern Iranian people of the Tarim Basin; dated to the period between the 13th and the 10th century BC and made of wool, the trousers had straight legs and wide crotches, and were likely made for horseback riding.[2][3]
