The Sumerians (who lived in what is now Iraq) were the first to record elements of hospitality in about 4,500 years b.c.e. Every Fall, the wines from these vineyards-about a hundred acres of vines-are sold at a colorful wine auction on the third Thursday in November, which determines the prices for the next year’s Burgundy wines. Throughout the centuries, several Burgundian landowners have donated vineyards to the Hospice to help pay for maintaining its costs. The hospital is still functioning, partly because of its role in the wine world. It was founded as a charity hospital in 1443 by Nicolas Rolin, the Chancellor of Burgundy, as a refuge for the poor. The word hospitality comes from hospice, an old French word meaning “to provide care/shelter for travelers.” The most famous hospice is the Hospice de Beaune in the Burgundy region of France, also called the Hotel Dieu or the House of God. Its development from the ancient custom of breaking bread with a passing stranger to the operations of today’s multifaceted hospitality conglomerates makes fascinating reading, and interesting comparisons can be made with today’s hospitality management.
