CNN —A small stone vial discovered in southeastern Iran contained a red cosmetic that was likely used as a lip coloring nearly 4,000 years ago, according to archaeologists. More than 80% of the analyzed sample was made up of minerals that produce a deep red color — primarily hematite. The substance found in the stone vial was made from different minerals — including hematite, shown in red. Whether the vial from Iran was the earliest lipstick, “all comes down to what this new discovery was actually used for,” she said. The rest is slowly emerging from new excavations.”It’s not clear who would have worn the lipstick — or in what context.

Read previewA small stone tube found among the remains of a mysterious Bronze Age culture could be the oldest known example of lipstick. That could make it the earliest example of lip paint ever found. AdvertisementA colorised picture shows the mineral composition of the paste found inside the tube, which scientists say is similar to modrn-day lipstick. AdvertisementFor Baysal, it makes sense that red paste is similar to modern-day cosmetics that would have been found millenia in the past. She said, however, that more research will be needed before we can confidently call the stone tube a lip paint container.
