Magu (Chinese: 麻姑, lit. "Hemp Maiden") is a legendary Taoist "immortal" (仙, xian) in China, described as a beautiful and graceful young woman. Ma-gu's special "cloud cloak" of feathers inspired the fashionistas of the Qing Dynasty (1616 - 1912) to create their own style of jewelry.

Earliest evidence of a multi-component adhesive in Europe
More than 40,000 years ago, Neanderthals in what is now France used a multi-component adhesive to make handles for stone tools. They produced a sophisticated mixture of ochre and bitumen, two raw materials that had to be procured from the wider region. This is the earliest discovery of a multi-component adhesive in Europe to date.
This complex adhesive found on Neanderthal stone tools has given researchers new insights into the intelligence of this extinct human species.
The work, reported in the journal Science Advances, included researchers from New York University, the University of Tübingen, and the National Museums in Berlin.
