Answer:

Ancient Egypt

Step-by-step explanation:

The earliest parasol-like device can be found depicted in the art of the Ancient Egyptians, from the 5th Dynasty around 2,450 BC. The sun protective device was made of palm leaves or feathers and looked something like the parasols carried in the Pope's processions.
