A 1,000-year-old seed found in the Judean Desert has grown into a 10-foot tall tree with potential medicinal properties, including anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer effects. The seed, named 'Sheba' after the biblical queen, is believed to be part of an extinct lineage of trees mentioned in the Bible. Scientists hope to explore its historical significance and potential modern medical benefits. The tree's close relation to myrrh and frankincense, as well as its compounds with anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer properties, make it a promising subject for further research in cancer treatment and other therapeutic breakthroughs.
