So I would agree that tanned leather could be a lot older than Theophrastus, especially in areas other than Egypt and the Netherlands where few finds have been studied, but the thinking among the specialists seems to be that we can't just assume that early leather was tanned by default. I will be interested to see what the new reports on Chehrabad and Halstatt say.

Thanks for telling me about Theophrastus on plants!
