Why Did Ancient Humans Start Wearing Clothes?"

You're wearing clothes right now. You put them on this morning without thinking. Every human you've ever met has done the same thing. Every human in every photograph, every painting, every piece of footage ever recorded has done it. So when did that start? Not when fashion started. Not when culture started. When the first human looked at a dead animal and thought: I should wear that. Because that moment — whenever it happened — wasn't about modesty. It wasn't about fashion. It wasn't even about warmth, at least not at first. And the story of how it happened is stranger and darker than most people expect.
