The source of jewelry:
In ancient times, there was a word whose meaning was very close to that of jewelry in the modern sense, and that was "targeting top". This is probably because people think that jewelry, like face, can add luster to people's appearance. The third volume of Meng Yuanlao's Dream in Tokyo records: Suoguo Temple in the Capital of Song Dynasty "two corridors are sold by monks and nuns, such as embroidery, embroidery, flowers, pearls, colors, gold-plated hats, special bun crowns and strips."
According to today's words, the "pearl and jade" here is jewelry made of pearl jade. There was a shop specializing in jewelry and gold and silver jewelry in Bianliang, the capital of the Song Dynasty, called "Toudian". By the Song Dynasty, Wu's Dream had been published for thirteen years: there was a "Shujiatizhen Noodle Restaurant" in a small town in Hangzhou, which meant a jewelry store. During the Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties, jewelry was also called "head face".
In modern times, the word "headdress" (in China traditional opera, headdress is the general name of makeup ornaments on the head of Danxing characters, including a set of items such as bun, braid, beaded flower, earrings and hairpin) has been replaced by "jewelry" and has become the general name of all kinds of ornaments worn from head to toe.
I'm afraid it's difficult to accurately prove when humans began to wear jewelry. However, it is not difficult to infer that from the time when human beings began to realize the decoration and beautification of themselves, human beings also formed an indissoluble bond with them. The most primitive jewelry of mankind can probably be traced back to the distant Stone Age.
