Rope has been used since prehistoric times. It is of paramount importance in fields as diverse as construction, seafaring, exploration, sports, theatre, and communications. Many types of knots have been developed to fasten with rope, join ropes, and utilize rope to generate mechanical advantage. pulleys can redirect the pulling force of a rope in another direction, multiply its lifting or pulling power, and distribute a load over multiple parts of the same rope to increase safety and decrease wear.

The use of ropes Nylon and Polypropylene rope for hunting, pulling, fastening, attaching, carrying, lifting, and climbing dates back to prehistoric times. It is likely that the earliest “ropes” were naturally occurring lengths of plant fibre, such as vines, followed soon by the first attempts at twisting and braiding these strands together to form the first proper ropes in the modern sense of the word. The earliest evidence of suspected rope is a very small fragment of three-ply cord from a Neanderthal site dated 50,000 years ago. This item was so small, it was only discovered and described with the help of a high power microscope. It is slightly thicker than the average thumb-nail, and would not stretch from edge-to-edge across a little finger-nail. There are other ways fibres can twist in nature, without deliberate construction.

A 40,000-year-old tool found in hohle fels cave in south-western Germany was identified in 2020 as very likely to be a tool for making rope. It is a 20 cm (8 in) strip of mammoth ivory with four holes drilled through it. Each hole is lined with precisely cut spiral incisions. The grooves on three of the holes spiral in a clockwise direction from each side of the strip. The grooves on one hole spiral clockwise on one side, but counter-clockwise from the other side. Plant fibres would have been fed through the holes and the tool twisted, creating a single ply yarn. The spiral incisions would have tended to keep the fibres in place. But the incisions cannot impart any twist to the fibres pulled through the holes. Other 15,000-year-old objects with holes with spiral incisions, made from reindeer antler, found across Europe are thought to have been used to manipulate ropes, or perhaps some other purpose. They were originally named ”batons” , and thought possibly to have been carried as badges of rank.

Impressions of cordage found on fired clay provide evidence of string and rope-making technology in Europe dating back 28,000 years. Fossilized fragments of “probably two-ply laid rope of about 7 mm [0.28 in] diameter” were found in one of the caves at Lascaux, dating to approximately 15,000

The ancient Egyptians were probably the first civilization to develop special tools to make rope. Egyptian rope dates back to 4000 to 3500 BC and was generally made of water reed fibres. Other rope in antiquity was made from the fibres of date, palms, flax, grass, papyrus, lether, or animal hair. The use of such ropes pulled by thousands of workers allowed the Egyptians to move the heavy stones required to build their monuments. Starting from approximately 2800 BC, rope made of hemp fibres was in use in China. Rope and the craft of ropemaking spread throughout Asia, India, and Europe over the next several thousand years.

From the Middle Ages until the 18th century, in Europe ropes were constructed in ropewalks, very long buildings where strands the full length of the rope were spread out and then laid up or twisted together to form the rope. The cable length was thus set by the length of the available rope walk. This is related to the unit of length termed cable length. This allowed for long ropes of up to 300 yards (270 m) long or longer to be made. These long ropes were necessary in shipping as short ropes would require splicing to make them long enough to use for sheets and halyards. The strongest form of splicing is the short splice, which doubles the cross-sectional area of the rope at the area of the splice, which would cause problems in running the line through pulleys. Any splices narrow enough to maintain smooth running would be less able to support the required weight.

Leonardo da vinci drew sketches of a concept for a ropemaking machine, but it was never built. Remarkable feats of construction were accomplished using rope but without advanced technology: In 1586, Domenico Fontana erected the 327 ton obelisk on Rome’s saint peter’s square with a concerted effort of 900 men, 75 horses, and countless pulleys and meters of rope. By the late 18th century several working machines had been built and patented.

Some rope is still made from natural fibers, such as coir and sisal, despite the dominance of synthetic fibres such as nylon and polypropylene, which have become increasingly popular since the 1950s.

Jenni’s out of town with sketchy wi-fi, so I’m doing Wednesday duty. The diagonal words in the circled squares are ROPE, LACE, WIRE, and CORD, and these link to the 15s, MAKE CONNECTIONS (clued without explicit link to the theme as [Network]) and THE TIES THAT BIND (clued as the revealer, [Shared beliefs … like this puzzle’s circled four-letter words?]). I have no explanation for why the center of the grid is entirely cut off from the rest of the grid except for the scantly clued circled words. Why can’t these ties bind a regular grid? I welcome an explanation.

The rest of the puzzle is basically unthemed, with those wide-open corners and the matrix of 7s in the center ring. (Are rings things that are often tied with wires, ropes, laces, or cords??) With the open corners intersected by those thematic 15s and the diagonal words, the fill’s flexibility is savagely limited. I mean, 16a. [Voiceless consonant like “b” or “p”], LENE?! No. This is a word that 99.5% of solvers will never have seen before. I know my crosswordese and I’ve read some linguistics stuff, and I’d never seen it. (And unlike yesterday’s wildly unfamiliar word, ORONYMS, I’m not at all happy to’ve learned LENE.)

Riffing on a recent WSJ puzzle titled “Inner Peace,” this one has us looking for INNER PEAS. Each theme answer has PEA spanning two words in common-ish phrases. The central revealer is clued [State of gustatory satisfaction exhibited by the starred answers].

I would normally like a punny theme like this, but a couple things ate at me. First, I feel the joke needs to be signaled in the revealer clue by adding “jokey” to the beginning or “jocularly” to the end of it. I don’t think that doing so would detract from the theme in any way.

Second, in my view, the theme is really weakened by the inclusion of a roll-your-own entry like GROPE AT — especially if it’s in the Down direction and you already have four solid-ish Across entries. (Even “GROPE AROUND” sounds more in-the-language.) I’d rather see that entry dropped and have the other entries shuffled around. With CAPE ANN being 7-letters long, it might work better in the central location. Since all the other entries are 9 letters long, my suggestion would be to drop GROPE AT and TOP EARNER and go with FLOP-EARED, CHEAP EATS, CAPE ANN (center), SLEEP EASY, and the revealer INNER PEAS at 60a. Not only do you get rid of two of the weaker entries, but you change the central entry from nine letters to seven (much easier to build around), and you don’t have the constraints in the corners where theme entries are crossing.

Another quaint entry: COOING with its clue [Billing accompaniment]. Apparently “bill and coo” means to kiss and cuddle and talk lovingly. That phrase is new to me, but based on some dictionaries, it looks as though it’s pretty old-fashioned.
