Cinnamon Spagyric
Cinnamom loureiroi
Used in ancient Egypt for embalming and added to food to prevent spoiling. The fragrant bark yields a golden yellow oil often used in sacred oils and incenses. During the bubonic plague, sponges were soaked in cinnamon and cloves and placed in sick rooms. Cinnamon was the most sought-after spice during the 15th and 16th centuries. Often used in China with ginger (Zingiber Officinale).
The Greeks used cinnamon to flavor wine, together with absinth. In the Bible, Moses was commanded to use both sweet cinnamon and cassia in the holy anointing oil. “Two hundred and fifty shekels of sweet cinnamon is the second ingredient in the holy anointing oil.” Exodus 30:23
It was offered on the specialized incense altar in the time when the tabernacle was located in the First and Second Jerusalem temples. Pliny mentions the spice trade for cinnamon that crossed the Red Sea as costing Rome 100 million sesterces a year.
Pliny the Elder also notes that 350 grams of cinnamon were equal to 5 kilograms of silver, or about 15 times the value of silver per weight. It is said that Emperor Nero burned a year’s worth of the city’s supply at the funeral of his wife Poppaea Sabina.
