Additional Info: In the Amazon, this aromatic copal resin is dug up from the base of the jatob#&233; tree and burned as incense, used in the manufacture of varnishes, used as a glaze for pottery, and is employed medicinally. Indians in the Amazon have long used the resin in magic rituals, love potions, and in wedding ceremonies. Although the name Hymenaea is derived from Hymen, the Greek God of marriage, it refers to the green leaflets that always occur in matching pairs rather than the Indian's use of it in marriage ceremonies. |
