The History of Silk
Silk has been a luxery product for over 4500 years. At first only the emporer was alloud to wear silk, later on the members of the supreme court had the privilege to wear silk. Productiontechnics were improved and the silk was used a lot more. It even became a means of payment.
The business of silk came to the west in the second century post Christ, when the silk route was discovered. Despite the route and business the Chinese people kept the secret of the productie of the silk for themselves for 2500 years. In 550 .p.C. two monks smugled the cocoons of the silkworm into Constantinopel for the emporer of the Byzantium. It took 700 years before the secrets of the silk production reached over whole Europe.
