Detailed Solution

The above mentioned statement is false.
The Silk fabric is famous for its glossy colors and smooth texture, which attracts everyone. A true statement is, Silk was initially invented by China around 7000 years ago. Silk was formed with the help of silkworm cocoons and made into thread. This thread was then converted into cloth through weaving. The technique of making Silk was unknown for thousands of years as it was kept a Secret by the Chinese. However, as the movement between people increased from across the world to China, people got to know the making of Silk. And this also eventually led to the creation of the silk route. Hence the correct statement would be, Silk was not invented in Europe.
