Guest guest Posted November 16, 1999 Report Share Posted November 16, 1999 Hi! I am a bit curious about this: > when many of the Egyptian tombs were opened they found sealed jars filled with >essential oils that when tested were still filled with vital life force! It is my understanding that Essential Oils..at least steamed distilled were not made till much later...I always thought that what was found in the tombs were oils/ungents..made with the plant material..either in fats or oils.
