Interesting, but silk use in the bronze age is not a new discovery.
- dentemple 2y agoMy understanding is that it's not a well-known discovery, so that alone should make it interesting enough for discussion.
- gpvos 2y agoIndeed, see the word that I started my comment with. But the point I am making was not referenced in the discussion. In fact, I think the main point of the linked article is actually not that silk was being used at all in the bronze age by the Yangtze River civilization, but that the silk is being used for sacrificial purposes, but the title on HN does not reflect that.
