. Here are a few lesser-known facts about masks:
1. The first surgical masks were made from gauze and were used in the late 1800s.
2. In ancient Rome, people wore masks to protect themselves from disease during outbreaks.
3. In some African cultures, masks are used in ceremonies to represent ancestors or spirits.
If you have a specific context in mind (e.g., medical, cultural, historical), I'd be happy to provide more insights!
