Prehistoric people had love of beauty
Quote: PLOCNIK, Serbia (Reuters) - If the figurines found in an ancient
European settlement are any guide, women have been dressing to
impress
for at least 7,500 years.
Quote: In the Neolithic settlement in a valley nestled between rivers,
mountains and forests in what is now southern Serbia, men rushed
around a smoking furnace melting metal for tools. An ox pulled a load
of ore, passing by an art workshop and a group of young women in
short
skirts
Quote: "In Bulgaria and Cyprus, where such workshops have also been found,
they didn't have chimneys but blew air on the fire with straws,
exposing man to heat and carbon dioxide," Sljivar said.
