Good morning, everybody. My topic for today is "Early money". I’ m going to tell you something about money used in the early days. To be honest, we know little about how early people came to use money, but we do know some of the things which have been used as money. In early times in some European countries, salt was difficult to get. It was used as money. In some parts of Asia, tea was used for money. The American Indians used nuts and other things. Perhaps the most common money of all was some kind of animal. In some places today, cows are still used as a kind of money. So you see, things highly valued by every body may serve as money:
