In the vicinity of Keren, there is a very old baobab tree, in which a small shrine has been erected.
As many other older people in Eritrea, his Italian was still very good, and he wanted to share his view on the Italian history as a coloniser which was surprisingly positive, as most other older people are positive about the Italian legacy in their country. He also showed the way to the shrine. After going through the gate, we walked down the tree-lined avenue leading up right to the baobab. This tree started life in the late Middle Ages, its radiates oldness but also strength and resilience. For Eritreans, fertility spring from this very spot.
