Although people around the planet have been wearing dreadlocks for thousands of years, it may be safe to say they originated in Africa. After all, African hair textures are the most dread-able. I've read some things stating that dreadlocks were required to be worn by African Holy Men, etc. However, I would imagine that neanderthals had some knotty locks long before they were required by such African religions.

where they originated from was nature
wherever man..or long haired animals existed dreads were the norm.
so the 1st mammals certainly wooly mammouths

What else can I help you with?
