Codex entry
Water-driven sawmills have existed in Europe since the 4th century, and in Bohemia they date from the Middle Ages. The oldest sawmills had only a single machine, a single-blade frame-saw for splitting tree-trunks. Over time a circular saw came to be added, with the long sliding table, used for trimming board edges. Other innovations included extending and improving the blades of frame-saws, though the system itself did not change. Both types of machinery were water-powered (see Watermill).
