"Black Pepper, officially called Piper Nigrum, is a flowering climbing plant of the Piperaceae family, native to southern India, but also to many other tropical regions. It was known in Greece from at least the 4th century BC, although it was probably an unusual and expensive product that only the very rich could afford. Pepper was so valuable that it was often used as financial collateral or even as currency."
