Leatherworking is one of the oldest crafts known to humanity. People have long benefited from animal hides, whether from animals they consumed or other deceased creatures. These hides were transformed into clothing and shoes, providing protection against cold weather and the harsh elements of nature. In modern times, leatherworking has expanded significantly. It encompasses the production of shoes, bags, belts, and various other accessories needed for daily life.
The Awassi sheep breed is widespread across the Middle East, with significant populations in various countries.
