In pharmacies and nature shops, it is called Arabic gum (not to be confused with gum arabic) and Yemen gum. 
 In Greece, it is known as tears of Chios, being traditionally produced on that Greek island, and, like other natural resins, is produced in "tears" or droplets.
 Originally a sap, mastic is sun-dried into pieces of brittle, translucent resin.
 When chewed, the resin softens and becomes a bright white and opaque gum.
 The flavor is bitter at first, but after some chewing, it releases a refreshing flavor similar to pine and cedar.
 Roman emperors used mastic along with honey, pepper, and egg in the spiced wine conditum paradoxum.
 Under the Byzantine Empire, the trade of mastic was made the emperor's monopoly.
 In the Ottoman Empire, the sultan gathered the finest mastic crop to send it to his harem.
 During the Ottoman rule of Chios, mastic was worth its weight in gold. 
 The penalty for stealing mastic was execution by order of the sultan. 
 In the Chios Massacre of 1822, the people of the Mastichochoria region were spared by the sultan to provide mastic to him and his harem. 
 Sakız Adası, the Turkish name for the island of Chios, means "island of gum".
 Mastic has been used as a medicine since antiquity and is still used in traditional folk medicine of the Middle East.
