Wormwood (Artemisia absinthium)

The use of Absinth Absinthium (wormwood), Wormwood in English, goes back thousands of years. Ancient Egypt (civilization) 3300 BC. used these herbs to combat the ailment "Uka", which remains a mystery to this day. In the bible there is also talk of wormwood. This herb has a history of use and not just consumption. In the pre-Christian era, Wormwood would also be used for cremation. The Absinth Absinthium was laid round about and on the stake. The reason this was done may be due to the hallucinogenic effects of Absinthe. Because of these effects, this could be interpreted as coming into contact with the afterlife.
