Origanum syriacum L. syn.Majorana syriaca (L.) Raf. - Lamiaceae - Syrian oregano, Lebanese oregano, Syrischer Oregano, Libanesischer Oregano, Syrischer Majoran

„The plant may be called za'atar by association with its use in an herb-spice mixture. In Modern Hebrew, it is called ezov, and it may have been the ezov of Classical Hebrew. In many English translations of the Bible, ezov is rendered as hyssop, hence the common name for bible hyssop, believed to be a different plant generally identified with Hyssopus officinalis. The problems with identification arise from Jewish oral tradition where it expressly prohibits Greek hyssop, and where the biblical plant is said to have been identical to the Arabic word, zaatar (Origanum syriacum), and which word is not to be associated with other types of ezov that often bear an additional epithet, such as zaatar farsi = Persian-hyssop (Thymus capitatus) and zaatar rumi = Roman-hyssop (Satureja thymbra) and zaatar mani = calamint (Calamintha incana).“ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Origanum_syriacum

The most abundant components of O.syriacum essential oil were thymol (24.7%) and carvacrol (17.6%).

Major components of the essential oil from wild and cultivated plants at different times (before/after flowering; blooming peaks) were p-cymene (4.6-9.1%), γ-terpinene (4.9-9.0%), thymol (2.9-55.7%), carvacrol (4.6-61.7%), and β-caryophyllene (1.8-3.2%).
