Rome hotel quilt

First,? Never seen it.

Because the Romans had never seen how silk was made, they never thought that a bug could spit out silk, so they thought that silk was so smooth that it must be made of trees. They must have heard that silk was made of leaves, so they thought that this tree could touch silk. This is the same as a legend, so there are so many misunderstandings because they haven't seen it.

Second,? illusion

The Romans said that silk could stick to trees, but it was just their fantasy, because they always imagined that China people could live to be over 140 years old, with blue hair and green eyes and extremely high IQ. This was all their fantasy, because they had never seen China people, but they knew that China people could design silk, because silk was very expensive at that time. They can't afford it at all, so they will come up with this.

Third,? Feel incredible

Because silk is a particularly comfortable material, it is very good for making clothes and quilts, but the Romans can't make it themselves, so he thinks that other countries can't have such high technology, so it must be considered as a gift, so it can only appear on trees, so they will think that silk is picked on trees.

The above summary means that the Romans believed that silk was picked from trees. In fact, there are three reasons, so like us, we usually fantasize about what this thing is according to our own ideas, which is actually incorrect.
