Goines writes of his subject, the pomegranate, " Punica granatum, the leather-skinned, many-seeded Punic apple, is of the utmost antiquity. It is referred to in the Old Testament, and in the Odyssey is spoken of as cultivated in the gardens of kings. The fruit is commonly represented in Assyrian and Egyptian sculpture, and had a religious significance in connection with the cult of Cybele." DLG 124.

Fine.
