Složené oblečení je jednou z charakteristik anatomicky moderních lidí. To bylo nezbytné při migraci do chladného prostředí Evropy před zhruba 60 tisíci let. Tuto inovaci vysvětlují tepelný model původu a vývoj technik souvisejících se zhotovením oděvů, které by jinak zůstaly dnes „neviditelné“.

Complex clothing is one of the defining characteristics of modern humans. It became vital during the settlement of the cold environments of Europe approximately 60 000 years ago. This innovation can be explained through the thermal model of origin and the development of techniques related to clothing production, which would otherwise remain „invisible“ today.
