On the island of the lutus eaters Odysseus men eat of the fruit and become lethargic and do not want to leave the island till Odysseus locks them up in his boat and and sets sails from the island. The lotos eaters island is somewhere North of the African coast, but is it inside or outside the herculean shores.
My Mother Helen calls persimmons Lotos in Greek. It might be that said fruit has a specious as figs do as with the fig of knowledge/life. It might be this specious of this fruit causes psychotropic effects in higher doses but the version we eat has to small a amount of this substance to cause the effect Odysseus refers to.
