Palmistry, - "Manual" published in Frankfurt, Germany, c. 1500's (for
details). Get this book.
Note: Palm trees have no relation to palmistry as the palm
of a hand has. Following the discovery that Trisomy 21 was the primary cause of Down
Syndrome which includes the presence of distinctive palmar ridged skin signs
(unusual patterns), the science of Dermatoglyphics (the study of glyphs or
dermal ridges on the volar skin of palms, soles and digital tips) gained
impetus.
