@appassionato @photography So, what is Pakistan going to do to these children if they do not leave?

Did you know that the Romans' favourite went ?

Besides honey & grape juice, meals in were flavoured with imported dates from Judea ().

Date palm fronds were symbolic of - lawyers pinned them to their doors & generals wore special "toga palmata".

Judean dates were also shelf-stable & delicious.

Sadly, by the 19th c., they had vanished.

Except for a few 2000-year-old seeds.

They were successfully germinated in 2020.

@mythologyandhistory And once they mature in a few decades they may even produce some dates!
