Yep! The would use a saw that often had a blade made of string, like a bow, but would but gritty, sandy water in the hole they were cutting to slowly grind it away. I think they would also use “dull” copper saws (don’t quote me on that one though)
Wouldn’t the string break from the abrasive sand long before it made an impact on the stone they were trying to cut?
Change the string as it wears out. As long as it makes enough progress to justify the cost of the string it would be a decent choice.
