Folklore:

Named after the legendary figure of High John the Conqueror, an African prince who was sold into slavery but never lost his spirit or power. According to African American folklore, High John could not be defeated—he always found a way to triumph over adversity through his wit, strength, and magical abilities. When he finally returned to Africa, he left his power in this root so that those who needed strength could call upon him. The root became a symbol of resistance, resilience, and the unconquerable human spirit, widely used in hoodoo and conjure work throughout the American South.
