SPICES
The first notable uses of spices and herbes in very early times were in
medicine, in the making of holy oils and unguents, and as aphrodisiacs. Priests
employed them in worship, incatations, magical sites, and rituals.
Ancient books of herbs, including those of Cathay, Sumer, Assyria,
Egypt, Greece, and Rome, testify to use of spices and herbs in the treatment of
diseases. Hippocrates. Galen, and Pedanius Dioscorides, among others,
employed them. In the first century of the Christian Era, Pliny the Elder, in his
Natural History, comments a lot about the efficacy and headling powers of
spices and herbs in the treatment of just about every disease known to his
days. With moderation, they were filtered down into the Middle Ages and are
still known today.
