existence of a sixth sense-a relational

q sense must reside, too, in migrating

The Egyptian Saw.

The saw appears to be the earliest
tool that has been traced in Egyptian
history. 1t was found first In the form
of a notchei bronze knife in the third
dynasty, or about 5000 years before
the Christian era, and was followed I'm
the fourth and fifth dynasties by larger
toothed saws, which were used by car
penters, but there are no dated speci-
mems until the seventh century before
the Christian era, when the Assyrians
used iron saws. The first knives on
record were made out Of flint and
were, in fact, saws with minute teeth.
