Civilopedia entry

Rituals in many religions involve the negotiation between the visible and invisible worlds. Scent and burnt offerings are key examples of this interaction, as they involve something material turning immaterial (to ancient peoples’ eyes), seemingly moving from the realm of the material into the realm of the spirit. Incense was used by very ancient societies, from the Harappans of the Indus River Valley to Egypt and Mesopotamia. It involves combining a slow-burning paste with scented oils, often bonded onto a stick or formed into a cone. Incense has been important in rituals from Catholicism to Orthodoxy, Buddhism to Hinduism, and beyond – and has even been used as a way to keep mosquitoes away.
