 Of all the trees in prehistoric times the oak Quercus was the most widely venerated of all sacred plants because in the mythological belief of many ancient tribes the oak was the first tree created and man sprang from it. The oak tree was in antiquity sacred to the Hebrews, the Greeks dedicated it to Zeus, to the Romans the oak was the tree of Jupiter; and to the Teutonic tribes, the Tree of Life, sacred to Thor. It was the celestial tree of the Celtic Druids, also the sacred tree of the pagan Dagda, the Good God and Creator of the ancient Irish Gaels. The fruit of the oak, the life giving acorn, main food of the Nordic tribes, became the symbol of fecundity and immortality.(Lehner Ernst, Lehner Johanna, 42) | |
