Spices are aromatic and pungent products of plants. Their properties are often based on essential oils (from essence) which are oily benzene or terpene derivatives, vaporizing, and flammable. Herbs are small temperate plants used for their aromatic constituents. In contrast to herbs, the term spice has a tropical connotation.
Antiquity
Early attraction of spices was based on:
l. magical rites and spells (fragrant plants would ward off evil);
2. purification ceremonies and embalming;
3. fragrances and perfumes;
4. flavoring and condiments;
5. food preservation;
6. curatives, aphrodisiacs, vermafuges;
7. poisons.
Important ancient spices included sesame [used for food, wine and oil; today sesame seeded buns are the basis for Big Macs and the Mideastern delights known as halvah (candy) and tehina (oily condiment)], cardamom, dill, garlic, onion, thyme, saffron, mint, cassia.
Egyptians used spices for embalming (e.g. anise, cumin, sweet marjoram). Body was eviscerated, including brain, and filled with aromatics (myrrh and cassia) then sewn up and placed in sodium solution for 70 days, wrapped in linen, and smeared with gums.
Oils and perfumes were applied in many ceremonies (the term anointing refers to application of holy oils). There were 7 holy oils (probably oils of spices): oil of Libya, oil of cedar, tuatu, nemnen, sefth, heknu, festival oil). Incense refers to plant substances that release fragrances when burned.
