Korea
[edit]Hansan Ramie is a fine type of Ramie produced in Korea. I believe it shoud be mentioned in the article. There is even a festival to it. http://library.thinkquest.org/04oct/01777/clothes9.htm http://www.nricp.go.kr/eng/info/video_list.jsp?vid=v01_56.jsp http://guides.hotelbook.com/sisp/index.htm?fx=event&event_id=69101 --Hitsuji Kinno 18:32, 30 August 2007 (UTC)
Citation Issue
[edit]I would fix this, but I am rather inept at the use of the footnotes. In the Properties section, the first section is lifted nearly word-for-word from the Ramie: Old Fiber - New Image page from Ohio State University Extension (source 1). The text either needs to be turned into a direct quotation or paraphrased, either way it needs to be credited to the organisation it is from. -Ophelia.
Use of Ramie in egyptian mummy wrappings is a large enough claim that it should have a citation. 203.12.195.65 (talk) 00:13, 3 December 2012 (UTC)

Ramie in ancient Egypt?
[edit]I question this statement. I think the author is confusing Ramie with European nettle. The reference is a website, with no source. "It may have been used in cloth for wrapping mummies in Egypt. Though ramie and flax are difficult to distinguish in ancient cloth, ramie's resistance to bacteria and mildew would make it appropriate for mummy wrapping.[4]"
European stinging nettle is known to have been used in Egypt. "It was widely used in the manufacture of textile fabrics by the ancient Egyptians" [1] Ranvaig (talk) 16:55, 8 September 2019 (UTC)

Taiwan festivals
[edit]This statement is currently unsourced, and the last clause does not seem relevant to me: "Taiwan's aboriginal people have used ramie for millennia in fabric production and ramie is still used to create traditional garb which is worn in the festivals which have not been banned (mostly related to decapitation and stabbing enemy captives)."
