You may have noted that in paintings of the Middle Ages, most people are shown wearing pullover shirts without buttons. Here's the reason why -- if they wore clothes with buttons, and a button fell off, they couldn't repair it. Back in those days, many more individuals were mendi cants. (ED. Another reason is that all the buttons were hand-carved out of materials such as ivory, and buttonholes were hand made -- by handmaids?)
