Did you know? The assertion that flax (Linum usitatissimum) was used for textiles and oil over 30,000 years ago is based on archaeological findings from the Dzudzuana Cave in the Republic of Georgia. In 2009, researchers discovered flax fibres in this cave, dating back approximately 34,000 years. These ancient fibres suggest that early humans utilised wild flax for creating items like linen and thread, which could have been fashioned into garments, ropes, or other essential tools.
