The Mystery of our
Jewelry and Clothing

by David Torkieh and Loren Panetz

The mystery of our ancestors’ clothing and jewelry is almost solved. This is an important mystery, because if we know what our ancestors wore, we know about the climate where they lived, we can learn about their style, and we know how it changed. This year in our heritage fair we wanted to show you what people wore back then because it tells an amazing story about our ancestors. This gallery includes a necklace, bracelets, a ring, a pocketwatch, dresses and more! One of these artifacts was taken from an enemy during a war. One was worn as a disguise.

I think these clothing and jewelry artifacts can help us solve the mystery of our ancestors’ lives.
