Wool is a textile fiber that is obtained from shearing sheep's fur. Wool consists of protein intertwined with a tiny amount of lipids.
History
Wool has been cultivated and used throughout history, with its earliest known application dating to early 4,000 to 3,000 BCE, when the material was likely plucked by hand or with bronze combs before the invention of shears.[1] Humans continued to gather and use wool throughout the Peloponnesian War,[2] Ptolemaic Egypt,[3] and the Viking Age.[4] In the Renaissance, wool was the second popular good sold at the Mercato Vecchio in Florence.[5] In Rome, wool was obtained by Assassin Mentor Ezio Auditore during his fight against the Templar Cesare Borgia.[6]
During the American Revolutionary War, wool was bought and sold as a commodity in the thirteen colonies. The Kanien'kehá:ka Assassin Ratonhnhaké:ton frequently retrieved wool from the Davenport Homestead's farmers Warren and Prudence. The homestead's seamstress Ellen would use it to craft such things as Linsey-woolsey, sewing threads, wigs, along with other needed materials.[7]
