What do you think? Do you believe these are groundbreaking discovery? Or is this just sensationalism over ordinary clothing belonging to both men and women?

If these are legitimate women undergarments, the possibilities for authors writing in historical time periods just got more exciting. Either way, it’s fun to imagine.
