3.000 years ago, female Minoan crocus gatherers walked barefoot on volcanic rocks to collect the wild flowers & present saffron to the "Lady of the Animals".

In the medieval times, Tacuinum Sanitatis illustrates a woman meticulously harvesting crocus as remedy.​

Look at this wonderful image of the Codex Regius manuscript (GKS 2365 4º) as displayed in the Edda building in Reykjavík.

It was submitted by contributor DocRife today via the iViking app. Stunning!
