Origins and historical notes:
The name oregano also called "splendour of the mountain" is given by its etymological composition of Greek origin, "oros", which means mountain, and "ganos", which means splendor. In fact, it grows in high altitudes in the most rocky and impervious areas. Oregano was considered in ancient times a symbol of happiness and for this reason it was used to create crowns to encircle the heads of newlyweds.
Oregano is native to the Middle East. It arrived in Greece thanks to Alexander the Great after the conquest of Macedonia and from there it also moved to Rome, where it was soon appreciated by our Latin ancestors. Gastronomically speaking, in ancient Rome dried oregano was one of the ingredients of the renowned garum.
Its use continued in the following centuries, especially in southern cuisine, as confirmed by the fact that we find it mentioned only in Roman and southern recipe books. Today its distribution is concentrated in the Mediterranean area, with Turkey as the leading producer and exporter worldwide, followed by Albania.
In Italy it is widespread especially in the southern regions, so much so that the Sicily Region wanted to have it recognized as a typical product. Today it is included in the list of traditional Italian agri-food products of the Ministry of Agricultural, Food and Forestry Policies.
