This plant on f186v, does anyone know what it could be? The Hebrew name is Cemehor, which reminded me of Camphor. This does not match the Latin and Greek names though. The plant is said to grow in the mountains of Arabia. Camphor grew in Southeast Asia, though it did reach Europe through Arab traders and the true origin of the plant would have been a mystery to many.
