A mastic plant produces a hard resin-substance which is used for baking. It is also used in Turkish Delight.

[Brandon's Mom 4/2] The work on the chariot yesterday went very well. Thank you everyone! The next meeting will be on Monday April 9th at 1:30pm. Bring your swim suits for hot tub after. The group will paint the chariot, let it dry, and then apply any stickers you want. suggestions - "flames" on the side and the word, "CHIOS" letter stickers on the back. Brandon's parents will get all the paint. Everyone looks for appropriate stickers.

[edit] T-Shirt Design
Assignment: create a T-shirt for your city-state
//Mariam: We'll have starfit blue t-shirts from walmart or target. then, on the front, we'll add iron on letters that spell out chios (obviously) and we'll put our own handprints on it. on the back, we'll have a special number that we chose ourselves, and our greek nick name (for example my nick name is Athena!)
[Brandon's mom 4/12] I bought royal blue t-shirts for everyone. What color letters do you all want for "CHIOS"? What color for your nicknames? What color paint do you want for the handprint?
Gold letters will be very hard to find and won't show up very well against the royal blue. I would recommend WHITE. Emily:We are bringing some iron on tranfers paper that we can print from the computor if we want to use these.....
