Today when I was visiting the marketplace for some new pots, I came across a merchant selling these odd, a bit fabric-like white sheets. He told me that the Egyptians make these from reeds to write on them. Personally, I don't see a need for such a material. Just use a clay tablet like a normal person!
Grunk need job. Grunk see job carving. Carving say need ten season experience with wheel. But Grunk invent wheel 5 season ago. Grunk think job giver have wheel in place of head.
