>Thank you very much for your response Marge. I have often assumed that ancient cultures used infused botanicals vs our modern distilled eo's. So many website try to proclaim that their "anointing oils" are the same formulas used in the Bible and I just find that a hard pill to swallow. Of course, I may be wrong. I would like to eventually teach a class on the classic forms of anointing oils of ancient civilizations if I could ever find enough info. I just actually ordered a book from Amazon that I found on Aromaweb, called "Aromatherapy Anointing Oils: Spiritual Blessings, Ceremonies, and Affirmations" by Joni Loughran. There was another book listed written by an Egyptologist, but I did not have the funds available to purchase as it was a higher price point. I am looking forward to more responses to my quest! Blessings,
Lori
