Nobody likes to get wet when it rains.
Umbrellas have been around since ancient Greece, Rome, Egypt, and even the Middle East. In old paintings and sculptures umrellas are seen over royalty and as fashion items. In Rome, women would sport their umbrellas (or parasols as many called them back then) in the colors of their favorite chariot team.
Eventually, umbrellas were made waterproof for staying dry in the rain. Today, there are many innovative designs for umbrellas.
cute post. I wish you elaborated more on the history of the umbrella. But great start.
