BACK TO ROOTS - THE HOMELAND OF WALNUTS, APRICOTS AND PLUMS
The homeland of the walnut
Scientists claim that the age of the walnut forest in the Arslanbob River Valley (Kyrgyzstan) exceeds 50 million years, and the age of individual trees exceeds 1000 years.
There is a legend according to which the great commander Alexander the Great passed through the outskirts of Kyrgyzstan during his campaign against Sogdiana (328 BC). A scout sent to find a way to India brought large supplies of the fruits of an amazing plant from the mountains, which look like a human brain.
With the help of this fruit, the soldiers of the Macedonian army, hungry and sick with an unknown disease, were miraculously cured. After this, the commander decided to take some of these nuts with him to Greece.
Thus, the nuts began to be called walnuts. By the way, in Greece itself, these fruits were known as Persian or royal nuts.
The most likely primary center of origin of the apricot is considered to be the Tien Shan mountain range, which extends across China, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan. Apricot was first mentioned in the writings of the Chinese Emperor Yu 2198 years before the new era.
The homeland of the plum is considered to be Asia. From there, over time, it came to Egypt and Greece. At the turn of the 3rd and 4th centuries BC, Theophrastus (a versatile ancient Greek scientist) described the varieties of plum. Plum was brought to Ancient Rome by the Roman commander Pompey. Long before the new era, the Syrians knew how to make prunes and even supplied them to other countries.
UNTOUCHED WILD FORESTS IN THE MOUNTAINS OF KYRGYZSTAN
Inaccessible mountains saved the pristine nut and fruit forests of Kyrgyzstan from industrial human impact. To this day, these forests are not touched by chemical fertilizers and agricultural machinery. The trees spread and grow themselves, and harvesting is done only by hand. This is not just organic farming - it is a wild nature reserve that is more than 50 million years old.
