Supernatural Saffron

Supernatural

Supernatural phenomena or entities are those beyond the laws of nature. The term is derived from Medieval Latin supernaturalis, from Latin super- 'above, beyond, outside of' + natura 'nature'. Although the corollary term "nature" has had multiple meanings since the ancient world, the term "supernatural" emerged in the Middle Ages and did not exist in the ancient world. Many cultures around the world lack concepts or reject distinctions between the natural and supernatural.

Saffron

Saffron is a spice derived from the sterile autumn-blooming flower of Crocus sativus, commonly known as the "saffron crocus". The vivid crimson stigma and styles are collected and dried for use mainly as a food seasoning and colourant. Saffron crocus was slowly propagated throughout much of Eurasia and later brought to parts of North Africa, North America, even as far as Fiji in Oceania by its Indian migrant descendant population.

Saffron (color)

Saffron is a shade of yellow or orange, the colour of the tip of the saffron crocus thread, from which the spice saffron is derived. The hue of the spice saffron is primarily due to the carotenoid chemical crocin.
