Silk was discovered around 30 BC in Ancient China. They made it from silkworm cocoons by unwinding them and then weaving them into clothes. They usually made the traditional robe that was popular for daily wear at that time, and the robe is now more commonly ceremonial dress attire. They put beautiful designs of nature or scenery on the robes. People all around the world became interested in the material that was (and still is) a one-of-a-kind material. The Roman women were especially interested, and would trade the weight of silk for the same weight in gold. It still is the most valuable product from China.
Silk was important in ancient China because it was the most important Chinese export in the middle ages. It was sent to west along the silk road, which stretched for 6,400 KM all the way to Europe. Silk making had been taking place in China for about 3,000 years.
Because then people could make clothes. I'm not sure. My friend Matthew Ballow told me.
