inference that sugar cane had special significance in the
ancient era? Select three options.

cane. To worship and request help from Durga, the most
important goddess, you lie down and face a three-cornered
fire pot. Then, as you speak the sacred words, you place
your offerings in the fire.

"it crystallized into sweet, dark brown clumps"
"Perhaps that transformation itself seemed magical
"sugar cane is called ikshu, which means 'something that
pÄ ple want"
