In Greek mythology, the [[lotus-eaters]] (Greek: [[λωτοφάγοι]], translit. lōtophágoi) were a race of people living on an island dominated by the lotus tree, a plant whose botanical identity is uncertain. The lotus fruits and flowers were the primary food of the island and were a [[narcotic]], causing the inhabitants to sleep in peaceful apathy. After they ate the lotus they would forget their home and loved ones, and only long to stay with their fellow lotus-eaters. Those who ate the plant never cared to report, nor return. | |wketx=In Greek mythology, the [[lotus-eaters]] (Greek: [[λωτοφάγοι]], translit. lōtophágoi) were a race of people living on an island dominated by the lotus tree, a plant whose botanical identity is uncertain.
