Before the advent of soft pillows

What did people use if they didn't use pillows? I don't know the answer but it'd make an excellent addition to the article. Cburnett 00:40, 30 Nov 2004 (UTC)

I know Jacob used a rock for a pillow in the Bible, shortly before becoming Israel. >.> relevant?

  • Perahps, but even if Jacob's story is not relevant. In China's history, it was very common for people to use a stoneware box as a pillow and is still practiced by some today. I think that is definitely a necessary addition. --~ Jared ~ 01:47, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

pile of clothes or anything soft to put head on.usually pillows aren't required for sleep,unless you sleep on something hard like wood/stone surface.


why is the microbead pillow thing in the history section? someone PLEASE correct.

For the life of me, I can't understand how a non-soft pillow is supposed to be used. If any part of the head rests on a hard surface, it will become sore. Can someone explain?82.155.229.219 (talk) 23:32, 12 May 2016 (UTC)
