Acacia marble shine

Wood came from a branch of a tree that lost few branches because of the wheight of the ice and danger to the visitors of the park.

 

Name of a Acacia tree derives from the Greek word for its characteristic thorns ,ἀκίς (akis; "thorn").

The acacia is used as a symbol in Freemasonary, to represent purity and endurance of the soul, and as funerary symbolism signifying resurrection and immortality. Egyptian mythology has associated the acacia tree with characteristics of the tree of life, such as in the Myth of Osiris and Isis.

Smoke from acacia bark is thought to keep demons and ghosts away and to put the gods in a good mood.

 

According to Easton's Bible Dictionary, the acacia tree may be the “burning bush” (Exodus 3:2) which Moses encountered in the desert. Also, when God gave Moses the instructions for building the Tabernacle, he said to "make an ark" and "a table of acacia wood" (Exodus 25:10 & 23, Revised Standard Version). Also, in the Christian tradition, Christ's crown of thorns is thought to have been woven from acacia.
