Did not want to highjack the thread about Egyptian woodworking so here is a link to glue 8300 years ago.

Thanks for the post. It's amazing to think that some kind of hide glue was used even before the discovery of pottery, 8,000 years ago.

(It makes ancient Egyptian dovetails look like contemporary technology).

Thanks for info Bill. Very interesting. It amazes me that there were glues so long a go.
