Hello all ^^ I want to share something to you ...
it's all about sunflower (himawari) . So, recently I got addicted to himawari, i just realized that this flower has a big charm to get captured by the viewer. It has a deep color, yellow go to orange, so fresh !!
So these are some histories of sunflower ^_^ enjoy !!
The sunflower is native to the Central Americas. The evidence thus far is that it was first domesticated in Meso america, present day Mexico, by at least 2600 BC. It may have been domesticated a second time in the middle Mississippi Valley, or been introduced there from Mexico at an early date, as maize was. The earliest known examples of a fully domesticated sunflower north of Mexico have been found in Tennessee and date to around 2300 BC. Manyindigenous American peoples used the sunflower as the symbol of their solar deity, including the Aztecs and the Otomi of Mexico and the Incas in South America. Francisco Pizarro was the first European to encounter the sunflower in Tahuantinsuyo, Peru. Gold images of the flower, as well as seeds, were taken back to Spain early in the 16th century. Some researchers argue that the Spaniards tried to suppress cultivation of the sunflower because of its association with solar religion and warfare.
During the 18th century, the use of sunflower oil became very popular in Europe, particularly with members of the Russian Orthodox Church because sunflower oil was one of the few oils that was not prohibited during Lent, according to some fasting traditions.
Anyway, since it's a bit late at night, and my mom told me to go bed soon. So i only can do these, not really many, but i hope it''ll be enjoyable, so i'll continue this on the second part. Keep waiting ^_<
