In tho early days of the Christian era,
although It 10 PROBABLE that at that
time the oil was Of vegetable origin,

olives; but IL petroleum oil was not
used the CITY OF Eternal Fire"
(Baku) and its fire temple were well
known to travellers of the olden time,
and many other sources were known
in the Ionian islands, Burmah and
the Eastern Archipelago. Within the
last century. and particularly during
the latter half Of 1t, oil has been dis
covered in almost all parts OF the
world, principally in sub-tropical re-
gions, and there appears TO be a
chain of petroleum-bearing earth
which follows more or less closely the
chain of the volcanic regions The
origin of petroleum Is obscure, but
generally 1t may be stated that or
Sanic remains of plants or animals,
when subjected to decomposition fol.
lowed by distillation at. low ten,
