Day 74 – Burning embers.




 Incense have been around since the start of time in one form or other.  With the burning of pine and nettles put on the fires to take away the odours.  It is thought that the earliest known use of incense was in Ancient China.  During rites for formal ceremonies.  An incense and spice route was set up between China and ancient Babylon where frankincense was treated more valuable than gold.  Incense now comes in a range of aromas’, and the best thing is if you want frankincense you don’t have to take out a bank loan.
