I found a list of old names of herbs and as you can see many ingridents that were used by witches back then were names of other things that many people hadmisinterpreted. I hope this helps to some people and that they find itintriguing, I know I do. This could be a wonderful edition to a book shadows or great way of saying the names of herbs in a more older way.
I found the website here: http://lebanon-pagans.tripod.com/id14.html (Remember to unsapce and spaces that are in the url in order for it to work, if there are any that is.)
