Name: Umbrella Thorn Acacia

Scientific: Vachellia tortilis

A.K.A.: Umbrella Thorn, Israeli Babool

Notes: A medium to large canopied tree native to most of Africa, primarily to the savanna and Sahel of Africa (especially the Somali peninsula and Sudan), but also occurring in the Middle East. In extremely arid conditions it may occur as a small, wiry bush. Timber from the tree is used for furniture, wagon wheels, fence posts, cages, and pens. Wood from this tree was also used exclusively by the Israelites in the bible in the building of the tabernacle and the tabernacle furniture, including the Ark of the Covenant. The pods and foliage, which grow prolifically on the tree, are used as fodder for desert grazing animals. The bark is often used as a string medium in Tanzania, and is a source for tannin. Gum from the tree is edible and can be used as gum arabic. Parts of the tree including roots, shoots, and pods are also often used by natives for a vast number of purposes including decorations, weapons, tools, and medicines.
