Did you know?
This loincloth is huge!
Description
Loincloths were basic men’s wear in ancient Peru. However, the extraordinary size of some examples—this one is eight feet long when unfolded—makes it hard to know how they were arranged on the body, except that they were tied around the waist with the decorated panels hanging at the front and back.
