Ancient method of making ink

Who the hell figures all this out..

Does it amaze anyone else how humans figured out how to do all this?!

Is this only done in China?

So, charcoal/soot of tree sap?

time consuming

Is this a rubber tree?

No wonder so many were illiterate!

At 3.16 in, my thought was: Just take the black centre out of a liquorice allsort and stop messing about. I'll carry on watching to the end now. 🤪🤔😊

Truly amazing 🤯😍✨️

The fine example of how hard labor promotes knowledge And if we think how privileged were the scholars in ancient China then we can think many things

Japanese will worship this.

IDK what I just watched

इतनी मेहनत से बन कर आती है, कलमुंही फिर भी शर्ट पर लग जाती है।

Back when @sunlorrie and @joe_warmington started out in the news room

Awesome 👍

One ancient method of making ink involved mixing substances like soot, charcoal, or lampblack with a binder such as gum arabic or animal glue. Different cultures had variations in their ink recipes, often using locally available materials.
