Famous historian, by the name Herodotus, from Greece in the fifth century mentioned some strange rituals which were about to breathe in the smoke from the burning which consisted of different pre-set up mixes of plants so that the person could become stronger and find some additional energy. What is more, looking through the Chinese manuscripts we might find the recollection of such a ritual as smoking of what we call now Dark Horse Pipe Tobacco cigars which brought the insight and focus. We should add that such a tradition as auric fumigation existed in Ancient Rome and Greece which could be observed only during rituals and during celebrations. Those might be the point which marks the using frankincense fumigation during the rites of catholic and orthodox churches.

What is more important, when the Europeans actually first met the usage of such a plant as tobacco?

When he came across the island of San Salvador in 1492, the habitants of that island made a gift for him which was a pile of dried leaves the name of which sounded in their language as “petum”. For the usage they were rolled into tubes like Action Cigars. Smoking those tubes was a ritual which ended conflicts and brought peace for two opposing sides.

Even though Columbus is claimed to be the person who brought tobacco to Europe and later the head of San Domingo spread the “plant” wrapped in paper the form of which reminded ohm cigars, the popularity of tobacco started its growth thanks to Jean Nico who introduced it in the highest circles of royal family. He cultivated tobacco and introduced it to the French queen Medici. According to some sources, this plant like Swisher Sweets Little Cigars deprived the queen’s headaches and pains, this was the reason why it became popular in the Europe.

Another famous person who promoted tobacco smoking was Francis Drake. He shipped it to England since 1586. Later, tobacco was so widespread that it was well-known in Spain, Portugal, Holland, and Russia till the end of the 16^th century. Nowadays, there is no such country in the world which is not familiar with tobacco smoking.
