MELISSA Represents the sacred, wisdom and endless life force
The ancient Greeks regarded honey as "food of the gods" and associated it with immortality and wisdom. The honey god (Melisseu) in Greek mythology was in charge of honey, and bees were regarded as divine messengers. In the Bible, honey symbolizes God's blessing and prosperity and is full of infinite vitality.
Honey is one of the most sacred foods in ancient civilizations. The earliest recorded use of honey dates back to around 8,000 BC, in the Lascaux cave paintings in Spain. Later, ancient Egyptian murals and documents showed that the pharaohs regarded honey as a sacred food.
In ancient Greece, priests of the goddess Hera were called "Melissae", symbolizing their connection with divine power. According to records at the time, honey was a gift from the gods, a symbol of wisdom and power, and was widely used in religious ceremonies and medical treatments.
The Sumerian and Babylonian civilizations of ancient Mesopotamia also regarded honey as a precious natural product that symbolized health and prosperity. Indian Vedic texts consider honey to be a sacred substance with therapeutic properties. In 1596 AD, "Compendium of Materia Medica" also recorded the important position of honey in traditional Chinese medicine. The wisdom and texts of these ancient civilizations made honey more than just food, a symbol of strength, health and prosperity.
