For instance fire-resistant roofs for dwelling pit dates the Christian era of years. Today the entire scientific world is greatly interested in the discoveries at the resting place of Tut-Ankh-Amen, the boy Pharoah who ruled Egypt 8400 years ago and whose treasure filled tomb has just been opened by an archeological expedition under Lord Carnarvon of England. The ancient Egyptians used great quantities of asphalt during the reign of the Pharoahs to nummify and preserve the dead. The bodies of the kings have been found vivariably preserved with this age-old substance and that of Tut-Ankh-Amen is believed to be no exception. Two statues of the Pharoahs found guarding the portals to the inner tomb, a black box, a figure of a swan and numerous other objects are of wood preserved with asphalt, or "bitumen" or "pithe" as the substance was then known. The bed or couch upon which Tut-Ankh-Amen was accustomed to recline was made of bituminized wood. While the Egyptians were extensive users of "bitumen," or asphalt, in embalming their dead and in waterproofing silos, tombs, monuments, clisterns, wells and small objects, they used it no more extensively than did the early Mesopotamians, whose nomads employed it in waterproofing their tents and boats. Noah calked his Ark with it as did Umaplishtim, Noah's Babylonian counterpart. The basket in which Moses was concealed in the parachute when the Children of Israel were suffering under the bondage of Egypt was coated with asphalt to make it waterproof. Cleopatra, Queen of Egypt, used spittoon to darken her eyebrows. Nebuchadnezer says he built Babylon "with burnt brick and bitumen" and the Bible, in describing the erection of the Tower of Babel, declares that "they had brick for stone and bitumen had they for mortar." Asphalt was also used by the Sumarians as a cementing dustry constitutes a true romance and is a typical American achievement. When this new fire-resistant roofing was placed upon the market twenty years ago there were generally speaking only a limited supply of materials for roofing purposes. Within five years the volume of asphalt roofings manufactured and sold was practically on a parity with all the older materials combined. Each ensuing year has witnessed a rapid growth until today. The basket in which Moses was concealed in the partersey when the Children of Israel were suffering under the bondage of Egypt was coated with saphalt to make it waterproof. Cicropatra, Queen of Egypt, used "pitch" to darken her eyebrows. Nebuchadonar says he built Babylon "with burnt brick and bitumen" and the Bible, in describing the erection of the Tower of Babel, declares that "they had brick for stone and bitumen had they for mortar." Asphalt was also used by the Sumarians as a cementing medium for attaching ornaments to sculptures, wood carvings and pottery. Nabopolaskat, king of Babylon was the first to use it for pavement. In the Western Hemisphere at a later date the Incak of Peru used it for surfacing a magnificent system of interribal roads. On his third voyage to America Christopher Columbus called the storm raked seams of his gallons with asphalt as did Sir Walter Raleigh when on this side of the Atlantic. What the Egyptians, Arabs, Babylonians and Incas thus developed we are using today for asphalt, now much improved and better understood, is widely applied in paving streets and roads, manufacturing fire-resistant roofs, laying floors, water-proofing ships, walls, clisters, silos, cellars and tanks, insulating wire and in preserving wood and metals. One of the most significant phases of the present building boom in this country is the great demand for permanent weather and fire resistant roofing materials such as asphalt shingles and roll roofings. The rapid development of this industry. Reason for this growth in the use of asphalt roofings are to be found in demand for the elimination of bearards and the maintenance frost proof and water-proof qualities of the shingles.
