when was zinc first used? what was its original use?

OpenStudy (abb0t):

I don't know when it was particualrly first used, probably served to make zinc-copper alloy during early industrial times? But in current time, it is known to be a great catalyst. It is also a very strong reducing agent which can be very useful in both organic and bioorganic reactions.
