An umbrella is a type of sun protection that aims to protect people from the harmful effects of the sun. It makes it easy and convenient to protect the skin from the sun's rays and can provide additional benefits such as blocking UV rays and reducing sun damage.
The history of umbrellas dates back to antiquity. The first known records of umbrellas come from the accounts of the ancient Egyptians, indicating that umbrellas were used as a decoration for kings and important people. In ancient Rome, umbrellas were used for protection from the sun.
In the Middle Ages, umbrellas became popular among the aristocracy and were used mainly as decoration, although also for protection from the sun. In the 19th century, new types of umbrellas appeared, including pleated umbrellas, which could be used both as decoration and for practical protection from the sun. Today, umbrellas are popular among all segments of society and are used as a fashion accessory and to provide protection from the sun.
