Fascinating read Em, thank you.
it would seem that it was revered as a powerful medicine, can't find an actual tribe called the sumac, but that doesn't mean there isn't one. Only remember the person who had the tree, was told to be careful as it roots went right under the house and had a habit of causing subsidence, so was advised to remove it, not sure if true

We were playing a word game and one of the answers was 'sumac' I made the mistake of asking aloud, what on earth is a sumac.
He then burbled but I know him. Straight-faced means he's at it!!
Googled and discovered it was a herb, but your link was more informative about it.
my o/h used to do that, he would have been a great poker player.
Sumac is a spice used in middle eastern cooking......or at least it is in my house.
Yma Sumac was a Peruvian singer - just a bit of trivia.
Brenden i know her, brought a bit of spice to her singing, oooh
