So I started a new fort. Human fortress- I'd been excited to try a human fortress with a material besides wood.

Unfortunately, my clay layer was rather far down. So while I was quarrying away, I decided to get my honey operation. I built an oak jug, but ended up working on houses for my humans instead. In the meantime, I butchered a spare water buffalo. I started some bone-related craft jobs for by bonecrafter, including decorations. And lo and behold, when I checked out the workshop contents, there it was.

This is an exceptional oaken jug. It is glazed with superior quality watter buffalo hoof.

Bug? Decoration quirk? Or is it a glazing method IRL? I admittedly don't know much (anything) about pottery IRL, but... glazing a wooden jug with hoof material?

lol Bones were historically used for glaze and that is what the game is probably trying to simulate. Not sure if anyone used hooves though.
