General term for any of around 480 species of woody or treelike tropical and semitropical grasses of various genera, including Bambusa, Phyllostachys, Dendrocalamus, and allied genera, all having woody, hollow stems, stalked blades, and flowering only after years of growth. Bamboo has been used locally for constructing houses, rafts, poles, bridges, and scaffolding. In Europe and America, bamboo stems were popular for chairs, tables, cabinets, and other interior furniture during the 19th century. They are also split, flattened and woven into smaller items such as baskets, mats, hats, and fish traps. Bamboo has also become an important source of long, cellulose fibers for specialty papers. Additionally, a wax is extracted from the bamboo leaves.

The first thermoluminescence dating indicated the earliest dates to be 4420-3400 BCE, but later radiocarbon dating indicated the earliest grave was about 2100 BCE, the latest about 200 CE. These dates remain inconclusive.
