More glue - bah

[Archelaos]

which the Egyptians mostly used instead of glue

Proper interpretation of this phrase can make it clearly on topic.
I am not sure how it works in original greek, but in english I think you may say that word "instead" suggest that Egyptians were doing lamination differently than methods known to author - with resign in place of glue. Then as the author is Greek, it may make us believe Greeks used linen laminate kept together with glue. What they used it for? Definately not for mumies...
