Umbrellas: A Brief History
Umbrellas were first used in ancient Mesopotamia as
sunshades and were later adopted by women in
ancient Greece and Rome. In the first century a.d.,
Roman women began oiling their paper sunshades to
provide rain protection, and the umbrella as we know it
was bom. But it was not until the eighteenth century
that umbrellas became acceptable for men. Beginning
in 1750, Jonas Hanway always carried an umbrella
around London, rain or shine. This was seen as effemi
nate, and he was publicly humiliated and ridiculed, but
gradually the stigma faded and the idea took hold.
When Hanway died in 1786, all proper British gentle
. men were carrying umbrellas.
