The Pomegranate is a shrub native to Western Asia, according to some sources of Persia (Iran, Caucasus), and according to others to the West of India. The Pomegranate was named by the Romans "Punic Apple" (Punicum laum pomum) after its discovery in Carthage (Tunisia) where it was introduced as in the rest of Africa by the Phoenicians. Through the centuries and civilizations, it was a symbol of fertility, prosperity and eternity. Its first uses back more than 3,000 years but contemporary science rediscovered its interesting properties.
