The Old Testament states that fabric production started in Western Asia. Biblical scholars believed that it was during the 2nd century BCE that the Chinese community established a means of networking and exporting their silk products to the west. During the reign of King Darius III of Persia, he used silk for himself and the Persian court. This was before Alexander the great conquered the empire of King Darius III. Despite the rapid spread of the use of silk across Eurasia, it's production remained exclusively Chinese for centuries.
