| [Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note |
| In the countries of the Eastern Mediterranean, there is often nor clear distinction made between a couple of aromatic herbs of the mint family: Names like Turkish kekik and related forms in Hebrew and often in conjunction with qualifying or descriptive adjectives, may be applied to a varity of native herbs including, but not restricted to, oregano, marjoram, thyme and savory. Usage may vary even within a given language, depending on the region and particularly on the local flora. In Jordan, zahtar usually means a spice mixture containing such herbs (see sumac for more). |

Beautiful, how old do you think it is ? Are you sure about the ID, I think it is Coridothymus capitatus. Ori
