In 2009, scientists at the University of Eastern Piedmont in Italy wrote that they had identified hemlock water dropwort (Oenanthe crocata) as the plant historically responsible for producing the sardonic grin. This plant is the most likely candidate for the "sardonic herb", which was a neurotoxic plant used for the ritual killing of elderly people in pre-Roman, Nuragic Sardinia. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Risus_sardonicus
Интересно, как это они обнаружили такой ритуал у жителей нурагической Сардинии?

Для них характерны удлинённые глаза миндалевидной формы, острые носы и сардоническая улыбка.
