Leather production began over 6,000 years ago! π
The ancient Egyptians, Mesopotamians, and Romans all used leather for clothing, armor, and tools. The first evidence of leather crafting was found in ancient caves in Europe. With time, leather became a vital part of many cultures. In the
Middle Ages, people used leather for shoes and belts, while in the 19th century, industrial machines made leather production faster. Today, countries like China and India are some of the biggest leather producers in the world! Their skilled workers continue this ancient tradition. β
