A massive African tree with a huge trunk that stores water, often called the 'tree of life' because it provides food and water in arid regions.
From Arabic 'أب القاع' (abu l-qe'a) or from Swahili/Bantu roots; Portuguese traders brought the name to Europe in the 1600s.
Baobabs can live for over 3,000 years and their trunks can be so wide that people hollow them out to live inside or use as water storage systems.
