QUÉ SIGNIFICA AMADOU EN INGLÉS
Amadou
Amadou es una sustancia esponjosa y inflamable preparada a partir de hongos de soporte. La especie generalmente utilizada es Fomes fomentarius, que en inglés también se denomina hongo de casco de caballo o hongo de yesca. La capa de amadou se puede encontrar en la parte superior del hongo justo debajo de la piel exterior y por encima de los poros. Se utiliza como yesca y también se utiliza cuando arde como un firelighter portátil. También se utiliza en la pesca con mosca para secar las moscas artificiales. A veces también se utiliza para formar un tejido de fieltro utilizado en la fabricación de sombreros y otros artículos. Tiene grandes capacidades de absorción de agua. Amadou para las moscas secas se pueden preparar empapando la capa del amadou en el soda de lavado por una semana que lo golpea suavemente de vez en cuando. Después de que tiene que ser secado y cuando está seco tiene que ser golpeado con un objeto contundente para suavizar y aplanar. Amadou era un recurso precioso para la gente antigua, permitiéndoles encender un fuego atrapando chispas de pedernal golpeado contra piritas de hierro. Una evidencia notable de esto es el descubrimiento de los restos de 5000 años de "Ötzi the Iceman", que lo llevó a una excursión cruzada alpina antes de su muerte y posterior enterramiento de hielo.
