waistcloth
A waistcloth is a piece of clothing or material that is worn around the waist. It can cover just the waist and the lower torso or it can extend down to cover part or all of the legs. It is often worn in cultures with hot climates and can be seen as a precursor to more tailored forms of trousers or skirts. Also known as loincloth or breechcloth in some cultures.
