ʻO Chinar e hohola ana i ka pale

I ka wā kahiko, ua kapa ʻia e nā mea ʻāpuni ʻo ia ka pua mokulele ʻo "maple hikina" no ka mea ua like nā lau me nā lau maple. I ka Crimea a me Ukraine, ua kapa ʻia nā lāʻau ʻoihana me nā sycamore, e like me ka maple. Akā inā ʻoe e waiho i ka lau o ka pua mokulele a me ka maple ma ka ʻaoʻao, a laila, ʻike ʻoe i ka laulā o ka lau maple he 5-6 cm, a he 25 cm ka ulu o ka ʻāina mokulele ma mua o maple, hiki iā ia ke kapa ʻia i nā wā o nā dinosaurs. I ka manawa kanu, ʻike koke nā ʻokoʻa ma waena o kēia mau lāʻau. ʻO ka liʻiliʻi o nā pua Maple, loaʻa kahi kīʻī mauma a kahi corolla o ʻelima mau lei. ʻO nā pua wai palalaki he mau pua pua kāne ʻulaʻula (stamens) a me nā pua wahine i ʻulaʻula ʻia me nā poni ʻulaʻula. Ma hope o ka pau ʻana o ka sycamore, nā hua liʻiliʻi liʻiliʻi i ke ʻano o nā huaʻai, kahi e kulu ai i nā hua ulu maikaʻi i ka makahiki a pau o ka makahiki, e ʻoki i kahi o nā pua wahine. A i loko o Pepeluali-Malaki wale nō, e hua mau nā huaʻaiʻai i loko o nā ʻāpana velvety o kahi ʻulaʻula ʻulaʻula a i hānai ʻia e ka makani ma kahi lōʻihi.

ʻOkoʻa ka lāʻau Paʻi i kahi maple i kona nui nui a me kona lōʻihi. ʻO kekahi o nā kumulāʻau nui ma luna o ka honua, kahi lāʻau kalapona e hana i kahi lei a 40 mau mika ka lōʻihi. I ka wā kahiko, aia he mau mokulele mokulele, ma lalo o ke kuʻi o kēlā me kēia ma kahi o 100 mau lawehala hiki i ka pale. I nā ʻāina wela e mahalo nui ʻia nā kumulāʻau, no ka mea hāʻawi lākou i kahi lewa a me ka ʻoluʻolu. ʻAʻohe mea kupanaha ua kapa ʻia nā sycamores he hoʻomōluulu ʻia. Kūleʻa ka lāʻau kahiko kahiko a me ka nui ma Turkey ma ke kahawai ʻo Buyukdere. ʻO ke kiʻekiʻe o ka lāʻau mokulele he 50 m, ʻo ka ʻāpana ʻōpala he 13,4 m, he 42 m a, ʻo ka makahiki o kēia lāʻau e piʻi ana he 2300 mau makahiki. ʻO kekahi o nā ʻano lāʻau piliona - e ulu ana ka lāʻau kalikimaka ma ka hikina mai ka Hikina a hiki i nā mauna Himalayan. Hāpai ʻia kēia heiau lāʻau kahiko ma ka waikahe, nā pūnāwai a me nā luawai, ma luna o nā kuahu, nā heiau, a me nā heiau, e pale ai iā lākou mai nā līlela nui o ka lā.

Ma Turi a me Peresia, ʻo ka lāʻau lele hikina i kapa ʻia ʻo ka lāʻau ʻoihana. Ua hāʻawi ʻia nā inoa koa ikaika i loko o ka Hikina i nā inoa, kākau ʻia nā moʻolelo e pili ana iā lākou. Nā mele poʻokela i hoʻokuʻu ʻia e nā poʻi hikina. Ma ka ʻaoʻao hema o ʻEulopa, ua pili nā manaʻo aloha like me nā lāʻau ʻoihana. Ma ka Hikina, ua lōʻihi lākou i kanu ʻia ma nā alanui, nā māla, nā māla, nā mākeke a me nā caravanserais. ʻO nā lāʻau kalanohano hanohano o nā māla nani o Shiraz i wehewehe ʻia i ka makahiki 17 o ke kanaka Pelekane ʻo Chardin, i noho ma Iran no 10 mau makahiki. Ua wāwahi ʻia nā māla ʻo Chinar i Kashmir e ka poʻe mamo a Timur, a ua kūkulu ʻo Timur iā ia i kahi "mākaʻi" i kahi e kokoke ana iā Samarkand, i kanu ʻia ma ka māla o ka hale aliʻi ʻo Bag-i-Chinar. I nā ʻāina Islamic, hiki ke loaʻa ke kiʻi o kahi lāʻau lele i nā mosaics o nā maʻa, ma nā miniatur Iranian nani. I ka manawa o ka Timurids, i ka hiʻohiʻona puka o Samarkand i kiʻi ʻia nā kiʻi o kahi kumuhana o ka mokulele, i hana ʻia me ka pena aka uliuli ma kahi papa keʻokeʻo e hui pū ai me ka hōʻiliʻili ʻana. I loko o Caucasus, mai nā wā kahiko, ua manaʻo ʻia kahi kumulele pae lāʻau he laʻa kapu ia.

Ua hoʻonani ʻia kekahi mau kumu mokulele i waena o nā mea mālama ahi-a Zoroastrian o Azerbaijan. I kēia manawa ʻoi aku ka nui o nā tausani ʻelima-ainake-centenarians. I ka moʻolelo Mōʻī Helene, ua manaʻo ʻia hoʻi ka lāʻau ʻoihana mokupuni he lāʻau kapu. ʻO ka kumulāʻau lāʻau, ʻo ia ka lāʻau o ke akua ʻo Helena - ka akua kahiko o ka momona a me nā mea kanu. Ua haʻalele kona kumu mokulele i kona hōʻailona ma ka mōʻaukala o ka hoʻomana Karistiano. Ua mahalo ka poʻe o ka Hikina Hikina i kēia lāʻau mai nā wā kahiko. ʻO ia e ʻōlelo ʻia ana ma ka Buke a Genesis, ma ka Buke a ke Kākau Ese. Ma ka mokupuni Helene Kefalonia, ma ka hale waihona kāwili i hoʻokumu ʻia e ka paia ʻo Rev. Gerasim (1508-1579), ulu nā lāla mokulele ʻelua. Ma luna o kahi o nā luawai ma kahi o ka monastery e ʻike ai ʻoe i nā kumulele ʻelua i kanu ʻia e St. Gerasim. "Cinar hoʻopalapula i nā pale" hauʻoli a mahalo i kona ʻano maikaʻi no ke kenekulia.
