arew in olden times. Numerous
ancient wine and olive presses
have been excavated in all parts
of 1 he country, dating back to
the Israel and Canaanite period.
The Bible, too, is full of refer-
ences to the importance of fruit
growing in ancient Israel. The
most striking evidence in sup-
port of this fact is furnished,
perhaps, by the famous sentence
describing a period of rest and
peace for t h e people: "And
Judah and Israel sat in security,
everyone beneath his vine and
his fig tree, from Dan unto
Beersheba."
