Alien-looking Island
, W& M( }( b: @- ^) S公仔箱論壇It is believed that Socotra got its name from Sanskrit, meaning “Island of Bliss.” Others suggest the name was derived from Arabic and means “dripping frankincense.” It may be a bit of both, currently unspoiled by man, but most people know of Socotra as being “the most alien-looking place on Earth.” It’s like a whole another world, like a different dimension。

One of the most striking of Socotra’s plants is the dragon’s blood tree (Dracaena Cinnabari), which is a strange-looking, UFO-shaped tree. The tree is so named because any possible injury to the bark results in a deep red liquid that excretes from the scar.

Some scientists blame a lack of water caused by a decrease in seasonal cloud cover—and predict that many stands could disappear within a century.

根據島上的記載,早在公元52年,島民就已經在聖多馬的指引下皈依基督教。1507年,葡萄牙人來到島上,幫助島民擺脫了阿拉伯半島上伊斯蘭教國家的控制,但是4年以後葡萄牙人離開該島,使得島民又重新淪為Mahra蘇丹的臣民。1886年,同Mahra蘇丹國一道歸入英國保護,成為英國在印度洋上的重要基地。www2.tvboxnow.com' v0 _8 \1 z8 J( ?% k
1967年,索科特拉島隨南也門獨立。目前,該島是也門的領土。

好特別的地方與植物, 風化缺水是它的不幸也是它的卓越之處, 幸運是它地理上的隔離, 避免了商業化與人為的侵略, 使它仍可維持自然粗獷的景色, 保持其純真自然的美.

龍血樹號稱是地球上最長壽的樹種之一,最高齡可達6千歲,主要生長在非洲和亞洲南部等熱帶地區;其外型如同漏斗一般,可以有效接住每一滴雨水,而枝幹則像是渠道,將雨水導入樹根,因此即使在乾旱無雨的索科特拉島,它也能夠完全適應。

龍血在中國則被稱為「血竭」,又名「麒麟竭」,是專治跌打損傷的活血聖藥。
