holy rope
Why is hemp agrimony called holy rope?
The plant was known to some as Holy Rope, because they thought it was used to make the rope that bound Jesus Christ (again a connection to hemp, used for rope-making). Another name was Ague Weed, as it was believed to relieve fevers, and even prevent them. Not recommended for medicinal use, despite the claims.
