Cannabaceae

Napir (Linear Elamite: Elamite cuneiform: 𒈾𒀊𒅕 Na-pi-ir) was the Elamite god of the moon.[1][2][3] The name was likely derived from the Elamite word nap or napir meaning "god". Not much is known on Elamite gods, however Napir is often depicted as having bull horns.

  1. Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
