The ancient civilization of the Sumerians believed that the cedar was a symbol of power, greatness, and immortality. Cedarwood has a long history as an incense and perfume. The wood was burned by the Greeks and Romans to fragrant the air. The cedar wood oil of the ancients, in particular the Sumerians and Egyptians was derived from the Cedar of Lebanon, a true cedar native to the northern and western mountains of the Middle East. The once-mighty Cedar of Lebanon forests of antiquity have been almost entirely eradicated, and today no commercial oil extraction is based on this species.
