How were hammocks invented?

Hammock beginnings

Original hammocks were created ancient tribes of Indians in South America. They made their hammocks out of dried plant fiber and hung it between two points. This was probably done to avoid the crawling insects. They soon realized the ergonomic benifits of no sleeping on the hard ground and the concept of the hammock spread. It is now a popular bedding all over the world.
