It seems that the first signs of the appearance of bags are traced in Egypt where hieroglyphics found showing male figures with a kind of small bag tied around the waist. In general, it is assumed that it was a convenient way to transport seeds on plantations, or in the case of hunters to carry their prey.

Men used to carry money, while women flaunted ornate and delicately embroidered bags. The amount of ornaments in the bag determined the social status who wore them.

Men also hid them under the pants while the wealthy ones wore their pockets and travelers and villagers had their own bag. They used a large cloth bag, which hung diagonally across the chest. 

XVIII Century

By reducing the amount of fabric in the locker room and adopting a simpler fashion silhouette, pockets and purses at the waist were no longer according to fashion. It was then that the crosshairs arose or essential because at that time the ladies could no longer overlook the comfort of carrying the most necessary items such as rouge, perfume bottles or fans.
