The origin of umbrella

4000 years ago, a child was walking in the rain with a big lotus leaf on his head, and the rain beads rolled down the sloping side of the lotus leaf, which inspired people to invent umbrellas. Lotus leaves are overhead, which may stimulate people's creation.

Umbrella was invented, but it is also possible that children imitate the innocence of adults wearing hats, which is not much different from children riding bamboo horses with wooden pistols at their waist. Even if you take a step back, the revelation of the lotus leaf above your head is reasonable.

Yes, but "4000 years ago", where to start? In fact, there are various legends about the invention of umbrellas. Widely circulated and recorded in writing, it is the miraculous "Master Lu Ban". It is said that Luban is here.

Some pavilions were designed and built all the way. When it rains, you can hide in the pavilion for a while. Although the pavilion is good, it is always inconvenient to set up more pavilions.

Lu Ban was a skillful craftsman in the State of Lu in the Spring and Autumn Period. Kong, a contemporary, travels around the world and inevitably suffers from the sun and rain. So he made a fixed umbrella in the car, which can not only shelter from the wind and rain, but also protect from the sun and summer.
