 industry in the world. In Italy, the
 cradle of the salt industry, it has been
 manufactured commercially for 2.50O years. Salt is so necessary to ex- istence that in some parts of the world
 tribes will sell the members of their families in exchange for salt. Salt has been the cause of wars, and so i'm portant has it always been considered that in some places the passing of salt is established as a token of friend ship, and women throw salt on wis itor as a friendly greeting. In some countries salt is so scarce that 1t is obtained through the ashes of grasses and a species of palm and other plants.
