About 80 % of students thought this was a swanky straw hat from the 1950s. Truth is that it’s the oldest Roman grasswork “Panama hat” extant, from Fayum in Egypt. In 2017 they radiocarbon dated it to 420-568 CE. Turns out the “Dark Ages” was really more about cool shade (Pitt Rivers Museum, UK) 🎩

I know when they take pictures like that it’s old as fucc
it looks like it was rendered for Far Cry 2 so however old that is, like a zillion years or whatever.
I’m perplexed anyone thought it was from the 1950s, anyway, here’s something about the Straw Hat Riots in 1922, my point being hats in the 20s looked considerably more modern
My guess was however old Colonel Sanders was.
I guessed late 1800s.
I guess there aren’t that many designs for a straw hat
My guess was 1500s
One million years old
Bloodborne rumpled looking ass hat
