Dolls have been a part of our lives since the beginning. They date back in human history to prehistoric times and were made for religious and playing purposes. The oldest found artifact in doll history is a part from an alabaster doll from ancient Babylonian times that had a pair of movable arms. The ancient Egyptians were buried with small pottery dolls that were believed to act as servants to the soul of the deceased in the afterlife. In more recent centuries mothers started making rag dolls for their children. Rag Doll is the common name for a doll made from cloth. Rag Dolls were first manufactured in the 1850s in England and the U.S. |
