history of salt

We can see the importance of the role played by salt, through the records of human history. Its production and use can be found in illustrations and writings dating back to the beginning of civilization.

Salting food was already a widespread custom in Egypt, about 4,000 years before the Christian era. The Greeks and Romans used salt, too, as currency for their buying and selling operations. The Latin word “salary” derives from salt, since in salt a part of the earnings of the Roman legions was paid. Even today, one of the main accesses to Rome is called “Via Salaria”, because it was this way that caravans arrived bringing salt to the capital of the empire.

Until the 18th century, the order of precedence of diners at a banquet was indicated in relation to the solid silver salt shaker placed on the table. At the head, above the salt, sat the host and the most distinguished guests. The less noble ones were below the salt, farther from the host.

In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, salt, in addition to being used as a condiment and medicinal product, became one of the essential raw materials for the chemical and textile industry. His job today is extremely varied. It is used for the production of chlorine, caustic soda, kegs, hydrochloric acid, glass, aluminum, plastics, rubber, hydrogen, cellulose and hundreds of other products from the chemical, metallurgical, food and miscellaneous industries others.

Since the Middle Ages, Europeans made a fortune with the spice and introduced the habit of consuming it in Brazil.

The exploration of salt in Brazil only began in 1801.
