Answer:
Wool
Explanation:
In very early times, around 10,000 BC, people began to keep sheep to breed for meat. The wool was much shorter and coarser than the sheep’s wool we know, not really woolly at all. But as the best sheep were kept for breeding their wool became more useful, and by 5000 BC their wool was good enough to spin well.
By 3000 BC there were approximately 40 different breeds of sheep, which produce more than 200 types of wool.
In the Middle Ages woollen garments were popular in Europe. Worn over linen, the wool would create a thick warm outer layer.
