The Great Bath at Mohenjo-Daro
"Several courtyard houses had both a washing platform and a dedicated toilet/waste disposal hole. The toilet holes would be flushed by emptying a jar of water, drawn from the house's central well, through a clay brick pipe, and into a shared brick drain, that would feed into an adjacent soak pit (cesspit)."
Sir John Harington, in his The Metamorphosis of Ajax, describes a flushing device
Alexander Cumming patents flushing toilet and provides the innovation of the S-pipe to seal odor away from the toilet bowl

Twyford started using porcelain

Number four is elephant grass, a plant I learned about from the Magic: the Gathering card of the same name. It's native to sub-Saharan Africa, and it grows to a height of 4-7 meters, or 108 cheeseburgers on average. You can feed it to elephants, but you can also make paper with it, and you can also use it as part of a pest control method called push-pull. Maize is responsible for one-third of all the calories consumed in sub-Saharan Africa. It is parasited upon by an insect called the stemborer, which eats about ten percent of African maize crop yields annually. African farmers noticed that this insect is repelled by a plant called
