    I wanna go try some silphium. Idk how far back but def before humans ate it to extinction.

    *Edited - I totally misread the question last night. I’d bring a pot, potting soil, and my gardening kit so I could bring that plant home!

      Sylphium has been rediscovered. They are currently cultivating it and examining it for it’s various properties.

      It never went extinct, the issue was identifying it with the shoddy record-keeping of the past.
