 | | This tree is bound up with the myth of Osiris, a god of rebirth, who sprang from a tree. |  | | The Tree of Life and the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil become one in the cross upon which Christ was crucified. |  | | This tree in the shape of a cross represents mans earthly death, but at the same time his spiritual resurrection in eternity. |

 | | Mortality among sectioned trees in this study was low probably because we removed relatively small sections, averaging 7 cm thick and 8% of the tree's cross-sectional area, from large trees of a species with effective, resin-based defenses against insects and pathogens. |  | | Most sectioned trees (79%) had evidence of insect activity in 1994/95, while only an additional 5% had such evidence in 2000. |  | | Although mortality was significantly higher for the sectioned trees than their neighbors (8% versus 1%), removing a partial section did not appear to increase a tree's susceptibility to death from factors such as wind or insect activity. |
