Olea europaea (species) (Olea (genus), Oleaceae (family), ... Living Organisms (hierarchy name)) |
|
Note: Species of small evergreen tree native to coastal areas of the eastern Mediterranean Basin, western Asia, northern Africa, and the northern Middle East. It has long been cultivated for its drupaceous fruit that is an important food and source of oil. The wood is resistant to decay; if the top dies back, a new trunk will often arise from the roots. The species may have arisen in northern tropical Africa, then spread to the Mediterranean Basin. It had been cultivated on Crete since 3,500 BCE; fossilized leaves of the genus date to 37,000 years before present. Sometimes divided into several subspecies.

|
| Chinese (traditional) ..... 原生於地中海盆地東部、西亞、北非以及中東北部之沿岸地區的小型常綠喬木物種，長久以來被栽種以收成核果，其果實為重要的食物以及油的來源。其木材可抗腐蝕，若其頂部枝葉枯乾，通常會由根部再長出新的樹幹，此物種初見於熱帶非洲北方，之後引進地中海盆地，自西元前3500年起，克里特島即已開始種植，此屬的葉子化石可追溯至距今37,000年以前。此物種有時被分為幾個不同的亞種。 |
