Skant - high-mountain ascetics

Сокотрийское жилище в Skant

It is a good place for walking among bushes and seeing young Dragon Trees running away from ever-hungry goats to steep corniches.

The Socotrans lead an ascetic life. They eat simple food that is not more than fuel for their bodies. In Scant we received evidence of that when shared a meal with local people.

    As far back as in Alexander of Maсedon’s times Socotra supplied a great deal of not only frankincense and myrrh, but also Dragon’s blood, which was rubbed in by gladiators before combats for quick wound healing.
