Use of lime has been discovered since prehistory, from the Near East to America through Europe. It was use everywhere from buildings walls to erecting bridges. In the same time it was use for decorating walls in the mediterranean region, we find traces of stucco as well in Memphis pyramids in Egypt as in Roman Palace.
