B. False

Silk is a type of fabric that was first developed in Ancient China about 8,500 years ago. Although originally reserved for Emperors of China, it spread through trade to many regions of Asia. Because of its texture and lustre, it became a luxury item. It eventually reached as far as the Indian subcontinent, the Middle East, Europe and North Africa. However, the Emperors of China strove to keep knowledge of silk production secret in order to maintain a Chinese monopoly. Nevertheless, the secrets of the trade eventually reached Korea around 200 BC and India by AD 140.
