Spikenard General - Spikenard is a tender aromatic herb with a pungent rhizome root. The essential oil is obtained by steam distillation from the dried and crushed rhizome and roots. Spikenard is one of the early aromatics used by the ancient Egyptians and is mentioned in the Song of Solomon in the Bible, as well as being the herb Mary used to anoint Jesus before the Last Supper. The oil was also used by the Roman perfumers, in the preparation of nardinum, one of their most celebrated oils. It was also a herb known to Dioscorides as warming and drying, good for nausea, flatulent indigestion, menstrual problems, inflammations and conjunctivitis. Spikenard is native to mountainous regions of northern India; also China and Japan.
