Weaving in Nepal has a long history though no ancient rugs have been found as testaments to the fact. However, the writings by ancient travelers and traders describing the clothes and rugs of the region confirm their existence. Rugs served as important material against the harsh cold in the Himalayas, particularly during winter months, and people from different regions had specific names for rugs and clothes although their sources came from the same animals such as yak, sheep and rabbit. They used these animals' wool and some plants for fibers. Cotton is also known to have been used from early centuries of the Christian era, especially in the hilly and southern plain region, but they were weaved using different processes and had different names from one community to another.
