Descripción
Species of large, deciduous shrub or small tree native to southwest Asia and the Mediterranean region, widely grown for its edible fruit. It was one of the first plants cultivated by humans, with evidence dating to as long ago as 9400-9200 BCE, thus predating the domestication of wheat, barley, and legumes.
