3. Dill (Anithos)
Dill is used in fresh green salads, and in spanokopita, (spinach pie), its main use in ancient times though, was medicinal.
It was popular as a wound healer and for burns and was said to promote sleep, if placed over the eyes before going to bed.
Dill was made into crowns, at victory celebrations, for returning heroes.
Dill was also used in ancient times to flavour wine.
