The olive is one of the plants most cited in recorded literature. In
Homer's Odyssey, Odysseus crawls beneath two shoots of olive that grow
from a single stock. The Roman poet, Horace mentions it in reference to
his own diet, which he describes as very simple: "As for me, olives,
endives, and smooth mallows provide sustenance."
