The Frankincense, a wonder of Oman, is a gift of nature that men had treasured for ages. The book tells the story of how cultures from the east and west—from Persia, Rome, Greece, East Arabia and the whole world, have been awed by this enchanting Omani substance for centuries. They purchased and sold Frankincense, used it for treatment, beautification and making incense. Over the centuries, such Frankincense-based products and industries have been established as unique Omani and Arab legacy that is hard to reproduce elsewhere.
