    1,300 Years Old Medieval Flush Toilet Discovered in South Korea

    . . .

    The IDEA of a 'flush' toilet actually seems to
    be a very OLD one. It was mostly a matter of
    the fine tech, and water/pipes/$$$, that defined
    whether you had 'em or not.

    They WERE known in old Rome - almost 2000 years ago.
    Kinda exclusive to the Very Rich, but they HAD 'em
    in various forms. Probably had 'em in old Egypt
    and Babylon too for the Top People.

    TP, on the other hand ... that TOOK awhile. Mostly
    it was the proverbial 'stick' ........ :-)
