Was there silk brocade at time of Christ?

In: Jesus Christ [Edit categories]

Answer:

From Wikipedia: "According to Chinese tradition, the history of silk begins in the 27th century BCE". So yes, it most likely did exist at the time of Christ, although I don't know how available it would have been in Israel, since that is several thousand miles from China, and the only means of transportation would have been by boat.
