From Wikipedia: "... Asbestos use dates back at least 4,500 years"
I didn't realize that humanity has been using it for so long.
In Italy (where I'm from) it's called Amianto, but also Eternit, the name of a Swiss company that used to produce it. There was a big scandal and a lawsuit in the 80s against that company, and then the Asbestos was banned from use. [0]
