14 ed bread) dipped in the fresh olive oil, with salt and lemon, together with tsakkistes olives and zivania (Cypriot eau-de-vie) or wine offered by the owner of the mill. The significance of the olive oil in human life, especially in the traditional communities, preserved through time the belief that the olive is a blessed tree and the olive oil is holy. In Cyprus, as in the whole Christian world, olive oil is used in the sacraments of the Church, such as Baptism and Euchelaion (Anointing), and olive oil burns in lamps in churches, by the family iconostasis and on graves. Of the many customs linked with olive trees and oil, we mention only the use of oil during burial, when the priest pours oil, forming the shape of the cross, over the dead from a plate which he then breaks in the grave (Papacharalambous 1965, 152-153). After the burial, bread with black olives and wine are offered as a consolation (pariorka). In Cyprus wedding wreaths in the past were made of plaited olive leaves. Palm Sunday is called Olive Sunday. The fumes of olive leaves that have been previously blessed in the church, are used to ward off the evil eye. This custom was and still is essential at weddings and on feast days. The words of a traditional wedding song are characteristic: "Call her mother to come and burn olive leaves for her and with incense burner and olive leaves bid her farewell." (For the use of the olive in customs and in folk worship, see Rousounides 1988, 23-71). References Aristidou, E.
