from the Horn of Africa and the North of Arabia, and was dispersed to the ancient Mesopotamian civilization, to Egypt and the coast of the Mediterranean.

Strabo ((63\/64 BCE -23 CE) mentions that it grows, in abundance, in Meroe (Nubia). Disocorides (1<sup>st<\/sup> AD) is the one that refers to carob as \u2018\u03ba\u03b5\u03c1\u03b1\u03c4\u03ad\u03b1\u2019 and the fruit \u2018\u03ba\u03b5\u03c1\u03ac\u03c4\u03b9\u03bf\u03bd\u2019, as it resembles a goat\u2019s horn.<\/p><p>In the Hellenistic Period (323-30 BCE), when the Greek language was the \u2018lingua franca\u2019, it must have spread to the Romans, and its Hellenic name \u2018\u03ba\u03b5\u03c1\u03b1\u03c4\u03af\u03b1\u2019 prevailed, as well as the <em>Siliqua graeca<\/em>, the Greek pod.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d12ccc9 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"d12ccc9\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-text-editor elementor-clearfix\">\n\t\t\t\t<p>Bibliography<br \/>Gadotti A., 2014.

from the Arabic \u062e\u064e\u0631\u064f\u0651\u0648\u0628\u064c (kharr\u016bb), that was probably accessed from the Akkadian word\u00a0 kharubu or the Aramaic \u2018kharubha\u2019, the carob came from the Horn of Africa and the North of Arabia, and was dispersed to the ancient Mesopotamian civilization, to Egypt and the coast of the Mediterranean. The tree named \u2018\u1e2balub\u2019 that is mentioned in the Gilgamesh epic (ca 2900-2350 BCE) is probably a carob tree.<\/p><p>Wood and seeds of carob have been found at Jericho (8000-6000 BCE) and was certainly already\u00a0 in Egypt in the 12<sup>th<\/sup> Dynasty (1991-1778 BCE). Botanical remains from Crete are dated to the Neo-Palatial period (ca 1600 BCE), but they refer to non-domesticated trees. The domestication of carob occurred most probably when grafting was implemented ca. 1000 BCE.<\/p><p>Theophrastus (371-287 BCE) mentioned that the Ionians named it \u2018\u039a\u03b5\u03c1\u03c9\u03bd\u03af\u03b1\u03bd\u2019 and some \u2018Egyptian fig\u2019. Strabo ((63\/64 BCE -23 CE) mentions that it grows, in abundance, in Meroe (Nubia). Disocorides (1<sup>st<\/sup> AD) is the one that refers to carob as \u2018\u03ba\u03b5\u03c1\u03b1\u03c4\u03ad\u03b1\u2019 and the fruit \u2018\u03ba\u03b5\u03c1\u03ac\u03c4\u03b9\u03bf\u03bd\u2019, as it resembles a goat\u2019s horn.<\/p><p>In the Hellenistic Period (323-30 BCE), when the Greek language was the \u2018lingua franca\u2019, it must have spread to the Romans, and its Hellenic name \u2018\u03ba\u03b5\u03c1\u03b1\u03c4\u03af\u03b1\u2019 prevailed, as well as the <em>Siliqua graeca<\/em>, the Greek pod.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d12ccc9 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"d12ccc9\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-text-editor elementor-clearfix\">\n\t\t\t\t<p>Bibliography<br \/>Gadotti A., 2014.

Once we reach the Three Churches, we continue west, after the hill of the village, to the beach of Psili Ammos (or Ornios).\n\nSpontaneous Carob Trees (or wood horns) thrive in arid and rocky areas and are quite far from each other. The carob forest of the Three Churches is the largest natural carob forest in Europe and is the living proof that the carob tree is the tree of endurance and self-sufficiency.\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/section>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-07967d8 dce_masking-none elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"07967d8\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-image\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"151\" height=\"127\" src=\"https:\/\/mobile.carobofcrete.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/\u03c7\u03b1\u03c1\u03bf\u03c5\u03c0\u03bf\u03b4\u03b1\u03c3\u03bf\u03c2.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"\u03a4\u03bf \u03c7\u03b1\u03c1\u03bf\u03c5\u03c0\u03cc\u03b4\u03b1\u03c3\u03bf\u03c2 \u03c4\u03b7\u03c2 \u039a\u03c1\u03ae\u03c4\u03b7\u03c2\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>02.
