Excerpt from The History of Chemistry, Vol. 1 of 2Under the word Aspac, dems (a skin), in the lexicon, occurs the following passage Aspag, the golden ¿eece, which Jason and the Argonauts (after a voyage through the Black Sea to Colchis) took, together with Medea, daughter of Etes, the king. But this was not what the poets represent, but a treatise written on skins (deppam), teaching how gold might be prepared by chemistry. Probably, therefore, it was called by those who lived at that time, golden, on account of its great importance.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
