Since time immemorial, mankind has had to perform activities at heights or above depths, whether it was about ensuring sustenance (e.g., picking fruit from trees, moving over trap pits, etc.) or just the need to get a view of the surroundings. As at present, even in ancient and past times, work at heights (or above depth) required specific knowledge and skills, possibly also technical means, but it was not an isolated discipline. Technical means securing workers at heights and above free depth accompany humanity as long as they perform work at such workplaces. They have gone through a long evolution, from improvised means to more sophisticated purpose-built ones; however, there is little information about their development or use in the specialist literature (Robson et al., 2020). The article provides an overview of the available information of technical means, presently known as personal protective equipment against falls from a height (PPE).
