Surprise with Inuit's 130-year-old panties

Archaeologists have recently discovered that women's underwear (thongs) are made of leather and fur from a marine seal in Greenland.

Through research, scientists found, this is the pants of Inuit women (Eskimo) living in the nineteenth century. Accordingly, the pants were worn by Inuit women 130 years ago. The pants are decorated with beads and can be sewn together through a woman's skillful hand.

Peter Toft, an expert in fur clothing from the Danish National Museum, said: "These panties will be worn by Inuit women as jewelry, even though they are confident to wear them when they continue guests or when visiting their relatives ".

Part glass beads, a little bit of hair in front, decorative straps on the sides are added fur will be the highlight of this thongs pants.

When leaving the community, Inuit women will wear extra pants . Due to the harsh outdoor weather in Greenland, the Inuit equipped themselves with a few warm outfits sewn from the skin and the reindeer's fur.

The thongs made from seal skin will help prevent wind, resist very good water penetration - it will help the sweat to not freeze when in cold weather.

The pants are made of reindeer leather.

The Inuit often hunt seals - residing mainly along Greenland's East coast to get skin and meat. Later, Inuit women will cleanse the skin, removing traces of meat and fat.

The remaining skin will be processed and sewn together with the needles. Currently, the pants will be on display at the National Museum of Ethnology in Denmark.
