What Does the word ADOBE means
I was searching on the wikipedia when I find this topic about the word ADOBE. Have you ever imagine what does the word Adobe really means? Here it is as in the Wikipedia.org:
“Adobe is a natural building material composed of sand, sandy clay and straw or other organic materials, which is shaped into bricks using wooden frames and dried in the sun. It is similar to cob and mudbrick. Adobe structures are extremely durable and account for the oldest extant buildings on the planet. Adobe buildings also offer significant advantages in hot, dry climates; they remain cooler as adobe stores and releases heat very slowly”.
The difinition is saying that this type of buildings are durable and offers advantages in hot and dry climate, does this has any relation with naming the company with Adobe?
