Researchers have successfully resurrected an ancient seed into a tree named 'Sheba', believed to have biblical significance, specifically connected to the medicinal extract 'tsori'.
Sheba’s ancient seed, belonging to the genus Commiphora, was discovered during a 1986-87 archaeological dig in the Northern Judean desert, alongside historical artifacts.
The tree 'Sheba' stands as a testament to botanical resurrection, illustrating the profound connection between botany and history, especially within the context of Biblical references.
The seed's recovery process spanned 14 years, reflecting dedication in bringing back to life a species presumed extinct, particularly one linked to 'frankincense and myrrh'.
