The generally accepted wisdom is that the kite was invented in China. It is likely that the inspiration for the kite came from ancient Chinese watching the effect of the wind on leaves, bamboo hats and sails. Certainly they were using wind sails before the kite was first made, and it is possible the kite came about when a wind sail became loose and floated up into the air still attached by one rope. It is believed that the very first kite was made by Mo Di (468-376 BC), a famous philosopher who lived on Mount Lu. He made an eagle with wood in three years. After his three years of effort he managed to fly it for just one day (so the kite has a history of some 2,300 years). Early kites were used for military purposes. Historical records say they were large in size; some were powerful enough to carry men up in the air to observe enemy movements, and others were used to scatter propaganda leaflets over hostile forces.
