When people look at the considered old traditional African cultural attire and clothing of the loin cloth and it's design, so much is lost of it's origin and actual accustomed existence over time from at least the past 100 to 500 years to consider any refferable time frame like Great Zimbabwe and the years of its inhabitants.

For sakes of the loin cloth design and the usual display of it being a flap of cloth at the front and back over the lower pelvis area of male or female bodies, it is obvious that this cannot be the times' only sufficiency of full body clothing, nor can it be the fullness of all the types of attire worn at any time of refference in it's use and multitude of preference by whomever had them.

Firstly, the two garments displayed hanging from a single waist worn threading already show that beyond a shortened square or skirt-ish-like shape of cloth, a shape that at its ends could be tied around the thighs of each the front cloth and the rear worn is not far from what is usualy seen in area's of only vidoegraphed screenplay and entertainment wardrobe clothing which is not anywhere or at any time exact to things that we're actualy worn for any reasoning during times depicted in the kinds of visualy recorded re-enactments and such designer based and fashioned displays of these kinds and nature's.

In great Zimababwe's history as an example, it is already evident in the namely meaning of the word "Shona" by "Sona" which is "to-sow/sowing" concerning garments and cloth for clothing, also that Great-Zim was at trading route and mid-way hub of Africa's southern region now known as SADC, which still carries the same sort of geographicaly demographic positioning with the same mid-way-hub "title-'ment' ".

At this Mid-Way-Hub of Great-Zim was far too much trade of cloth itself, manufacturing methods and infrastructure being shared of how to produce fully covering clothing and garments with quite much more precision than just a loin cloth and covering of the bottom most private part area of male or female. 

Clothing itself, for sakes of what most will consider at any "Loin Cloth times" of age, was so fully covering, that even the least of personaly made clothing that was not of any marketed type would be very bulky and with many utility reasons and uses etc., for example, hunters and gatherers were not only sophisticatedly clothed for what they we're in fields working with, but more so for multiple works and ongoings of daily routine(s).
