Indigo is an ancient dye and there is evidence for the use of indigo from woad or Indigofera from the third millennium BC, and possibly much earlier for woad.

An example is that of the blue stripes seen in the borders of Egyptian linen mummy cloths from around 2400 BC. According ro several sources ancient linen fabrics dyed blue are likely to have been dyed with indigo because indigo was thought to be superior to woad for dyeing linen. The truth is that it is difficult to ascertain whether ancient blue textiles were dyed with woad or with indigo from Indigofera. History of Indigo | Wild Colours natural dyes
