I'm imagining the reenactor of the future doing light research about
people in the early 21stC wearing corn. They will do extensive
experiments with spinning and weaving the corn silk - we must have
lost that technology!
And then someone will find a corn-husk doll and understand that it
was a realistic representation of dress. But did people wear giant
corn husks, or make "feathered" garments with them? What base fabric
did they use? Can anyone help me with this research, someone said
they did not grow corn as large as we do today, but then I saw this
movie called "Sleeper" where obviously they did...
