The plant Cistus Creticus.

A history from the season Pharaohs.
(10.000 years of history)



From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

In ancient times, the resin was scraped from the fur of goats and sheep that had grazed on the cistus shrubs. It was collected by the shepherds and sold to coastal traders. The false beards worn by the pharaohs of ancient Egypt were actually the labdanum soaked hair of these goats.
