From Flax the Linen is made, Ancient
Egyptians firstly used linen. Linen was a symbol of purity for the Egyptians
because earliest linen cloth color was usually white. Linen was used for not
only clothing and household articles but also linen used in religious
practices.
From India, Egyptians
import cotton for producing textiles. Now a days linen also used to designate
such household items such as towels, cotton sheets, napkins etc. The
linen may be originated from Egyptian word ‘linum’.
