I cant seem to find any real history on it. I think the problem is since slings as well as simple braiding and weaving patterns are so ancient and ubiquitous, theres no guaranteed way to know who made it first. Also the issue with them being biodegradable. I hope we can learn about it though, someone somewhere must have some knowledge.

The Rockman sling is named after a member from years ago. His name on here was Rockman. From Peru. He was actually super talented.

It is unfortunate that he is not on the forum any more - very talented.
