Lilith? Hennaed? COOL!

Rachel and Leah also had henna before their weddings...

OOOH, and if Asherah had henna, then so did Eve. (Asherah (babylonian)
= Ninhursag (sumerian) = Ashtaroth (phoenician) = Eve (israelite)...
ahhh how I love mythology) There's no evidence of Eve with henna in
Genesis, true, but there *is* evidence that the Israelites who recorded
Genesis were influenced by Babylonians (and Sumerians, etc) Which is
plausible considering how widespread henna is. This could be a really
cool list!
