Main features and values: strong evidence for the development of human clothing from non-woven fabric to spun cloth.

Kipib's history is very long. The bark cloth of Hainan Island existed about 4000 years ago.

Kipib himself is perishable and hard to retain as historical evidence, but stone pat, one of the tools of making bark cloth, can be preserved.

According to archaeologists, Hainan's bark cloth pits were picked up when farmers were farming in Li nationality settlements, and some museums also had collections.

During the fieldwork conducted by our province experts, in the dialect areas of the Li nationality, such as run dialect and Harbin dialect, some trees were found to be able to make tree bark cloth. Some families could also make bark cloth, clothes and caps.

Kipib has an irreplaceable special position in Anthropology and cultural history, because only bark cloth can prove the development process of human clothing from non-woven to spinning.
