 Full text | references | Abstract: Textile materials are widely available in nature, and the original time when humans started to use them must have been very early. However, they also easily aged, and most of the ancientones had decomposed and disappeared thoroughly before we could find them, resulting that the remaining textile relics cannot reflect entirely the origins of textile materials. Fortunately large numbers of indirect evidence related to ancient textile materials can be found in manyunearthed culture relics belonging to the Stone Age. Starting from the basic survival needs of primitive man, in this article, we analysed related hard relics from Chinese excavations made of stone, wood, bone, and so on. And based on this, the time of origin of the textile materials was further speculated upon. |
