incensed by this question about incense maybe the route to the mighty answer mighty be in etymology as prentice points out the historic appearance in Latin records where we find the past participle "to set fire" which surely takes us to: to what ? and the very dawn when nature would have sated the common nostril with burnt offerings rendering an answer as in what isn't incense maybe water but I have heard that described as sweet (Greek fire Bronze age) and maybe the first use of incense needs to have elicited a human response like "I name this incense" but I am not sure that there is anything specific about the Bronze Age for this to occur then or to carry any authority or trade name or brand throughout time.
How about the first time somebody was hung by their own petar or setting light to it even. Now that was the day that needs to be associated with a Epoch, it has got an element of worth in accusing an Age for is discovery and it probably kick started most of science. Pre Bronze Age defo.

.....nature was dead and the past does not exist
