Toiletpaper, first made by the Chinese around 1600 and what a delightful invention that was!
Makes you wonder, how did people manage without it before that time?
So for the next question; please name 5 things that were used to clean one's bum in the old days. The odder the better, as long as it's true.

Close, but you made one mistake!
Newspapers were introduced in the 17th century on a small scale and only became commonly available for the people several decades later (making it a cheap alternative toiletpaper indeed). So TP outdates the newspaper by far.
Here's a tough one!
One of Mr. T's trademarks was the large amount of jewelry he dragged around.
The question is; what was the origin of this 'dressing style' in Mr. T's life?
A few hints: it has to do with one of his earlier jobs, and he didn't exactly pay for the jewelry he obtained back then...
Good luck with this one, though it will be cheated probably
