When did clothes first appear?
According to historical data and unearthed cultural relics, such as the essence of the Five Classics and the materials of artistic clothing, it shows that clothing has a history of at least 6000 years.
Fine bone needles were found in the ape-man cave in Zhoukoudian, Beijing, which has been around for more than 10 million years. It is safe to assume that sewing had been done at that time. In this way, the history of clothing can be traced back to 10 million years ago. In fact, a Neolithic painted pottery unearthed in Xindian, Gansu Province, China, is a kind of clothing style that people wear-similar to robes and belts. The appearance of clothing went through the stage of keeping the leaves and skins of apes from the cold about 10 million years ago, then simply sewing them with bone needles in clan communes hundreds of thousands of years ago, and finally in the Neolithic Age six or seven thousand years ago. In the prosperous clan society, Hemudu clan and Dawenkou people have widely started to grow hemp, raise silkworms, cultivate men and weave women, and sew clothes (clothes).

The bone needle is about 82mm long, polished all over, with narrow pinhole and sharp tip, which proves that simple clothes can be sewn with natural materials such as animal skin at that time. The history of China's clothing culture can be regarded as its origin. Ornaments such as pebbles and perforated animal teeth have long-term wear marks. Five of them were arranged in a semicircle when unearthed, which may be a necklace. Another 25 pieces were painted with hematite powder, and the bones buried in the lower chamber of the cave were also sprinkled with hematite powder, or it was a finishing ceremony, or it might be used to color clothes, reflecting some aesthetic feelings of the caveman.
