History of Cumin:
Cumin has been used since antiquity.
Cumin was discovered in the stages of the modern Kingdom in ancient Egyptian archaeological locations. Cumin was used as a spice and preservative in the embalming of ancient Egyptian civilization.
Cumin and Ancient Egypt:
All spices were used in ancient Egypt and throughout the ages. The ancient Egyptians would get spices like cumin, cilantro, and cinnamon from the east. Peppers arrived late in ancient Egypt through the Greeks. But salt was present and available to keep meat in the air against decay.
Cumin was used in mummification operations in ancient Egypt. It is a powerful antimicrobial and helps to keep meat against damage. Cumin is used extensively with different spices because it gives a strong and effective flavor.
Ancient Egyptians used cumin to practice religious rituals not only for cooking purposes because their native habitat was the Mediterranean Sea and the Nile Valley in Upper Egypt.
