Indian textiles enjoy a rich heritage and the origin of textiles in India traces back to the Indus Valley Civilization, where people used homespun cotton for weaving their clothes. Rigved, the earliest of the Ved contains the literary information about textiles and it refers to weaving. Ramayan and Mahabharat, the eminent Indian Epics depict the existence of wide variety of fabrics in ancient India.
