From Wikipedia

Sarooj is a traditional water-resistant mortar used in Iranian architecture, used in the construction of bridges and yakhchāl, ancient Persian ice houses. It is made of clay and limestone mixed in a six-to-four ratio to make a stiff mix, and kneaded for three days. A portion of furnace slags from baths is combined with cattail (Typha) fibers, egg, and straw, and fixed, then beaten with a wooden stick for even mixing. Egg whites can be used as a water reducer as needed. Its origin (in Persian: Saru) is lime, i.e. limestone mixed with arsenic.
