A Bird of the Air Will Carry the Tale: Excerpt 2020
This large wall text is an excerpt from the book From Cedar to Hyssop: A Study in the Folklore of Plants in Palestine. The pre-WWII book was written by two European researchers studying the plants and traditions of Palestine. The book contains an excellent translation of an ancient Bedouin proverb. The proverb is particularly poetic and prophetic when compared with the contemporary history of the plant.
