Marco Polo and Socotra. Part 2 : History, Dragons and Frankincense

The Historical Context:
Socotra, an isolated island in the Arabian Sea, had long fascinated travelers and traders.
It was a critical stop for ancient sea routes, connecting India, the Arabian Peninsula, and Africa.
By the time Marco Polo visited the East, Socotra had already garnered a reputation for its strange and unique environment.
Its landscape, dotted with peculiar plant species like the dragon’s blood tree, made it seem almost otherworldly to outsiders.
Additionally, Socotra was known for its residents maritime skills, valuable natural resources such as aloe, frankincense, and the mystical practices associated with its people.

Socotra’s Mysterious Plants :
Marco Polo would have been captivated by Socotra’s unique flora and fauna, which he might have seen or heard about during his journey.
The dragon’s blood tree, native to Socotra, produces a deep red sap once believed to have magical and healing properties.
This sap was valuable in both trade and traditional medicine, used as a dye, medicine, and even an alchemical ingredient.

Frankincense, a precious resin derived from trees in the Boswellia family, has been highly valued for centuries for its aromatic qualities and medicinal properties.
In Socotra, 7 types of frankincense trees thrive on the island’s rugged terrain, producing resin that has been traded since ancient times.
During the era of Marco Polo, frankincense was a coveted commodity, exchanged across vast trade routes connecting the Arabian Peninsula, Asia, and beyond. Merchants transported it alongside spices and silk, and it held a prized role in religious ceremonies, perfumes, and traditional healing practices.

Marco Polo and Socotra. Part 1 : Christians and Magic.

Marco Polo, the Venetian merchant and explorer, famously traveled through Asia in the 13th century, recounting his experiences in his book “The Travels of Marco Polo.”
In his detailed descriptions of distant lands, Marco Polo briefly mentions the island of Socotra, adding to the island’s already mysterious reputation.

One of the most captivating details in Marco Polo’s description is his claim that the islanders practiced a form of magic. According to his account, they could control the winds, an ability they used to protect themselves and influence trade. Polo was told that these magicians would summon winds to sink ships of those who sought to harm them or challenge their control of the sea. Although Marco Polo was skeptical of such claims, he faithfully recorded them as part of his broader fascination with the exotic beliefs and customs he encountered.

In his writings, Marco Polo offers a brief yet intriguing description of Socotra. He states that the island was inhabited by Christians, specifically Nestorian Christians, a sect that had spread along trade routes deep into the East. Polo noted the island’s religious significance and the fact that the islanders were skilled sailors, frequently setting sail for the mainland and nearby territories.

“Khotra” is a traditional headscarf worn by men on the island of Socotra, known for its unique biodiversity, culture, language and traditions. Khotra is a significant part of the island’s cultural identity.

It is more than just a headscarf—it’s a blend of utility, tradition, and cultural pride for the people of Socotra, playing an essential role in daily life and ceremonial contexts alike.

Khotra is typically made from cotton or a cotton blend, making it lightweight and suitable for the island’s hot and dry climate. It often features simple, but colorful patterns or stripes, and is usually worn in bright colors.
The patterns and colors may vary depending on the region and social status of the wearer.

Khotra protects against the sun, dust, and wind. In addition to its functional role, it is also a symbol of tradition and cultural identity, worn by men during everyday activities and special occasions.

Some men feel uncomfortable, as if they were missing a part of outfit, in case they don’t wear something on their head.

Though Khotra is supposed to be only for men, all our guests like to try to wear it, even ladies.

The Khotra is wrapped around the head in various ways, depending on preference and occasion. It can be worn loosely or tightly wrapped, with parts of the scarf often draped over the shoulders or neck for additional protection from the elements.

🌿 Socotra Chameleon: Nature at its Finest 🦎 🌿

On the mysterious island of Socotra lives one of the most unique creatures — the Socotra Chameleon (Chamaeleo monachus). This small master of camouflage not only blends perfectly into its surroundings but also symbolizes the island’s incredible biodiversity. 🌍

🧐 Curious fact - local kids are not scared of chameleons, they keep them as pets on the trees in their natural habitat and bring on the sticks to show tourists when they pass by the village in exchange of couple of dollars.
But! The adults like 30-40 years old are very scared, they believe chameleon can come and pick your eye with its tongue. On the 2 photo you can see how Ahmed is aware, no trust to chameleon even after long explanations that the eyes will stay on their place 👀 😕

😅It is very funny to observe how adult drivers are running away from their cars in escape mode if you approach with a chameleon. 🤣

Chameleons inhabit the dry forests and shrublands of Socotra, using their amazing ability to change color for communication, protection, and adaptation. Their flexible tail, strong limbs, and independently moving eyes help them skillfully navigate among the branches. 🌿

Being a protected species due to its uniqueness and limited habitat, the Socotra Chameleon is a true natural treasure of the island! 💚

SOCOTRA IS WILD BUT IT WILL NOT LAST LONG

When you come to Socotra, you feel first in a very isolated place. Thought the island is not so far. Just 2 hours away from Abu Dhabi by plane.

Then when you start your road trip with us, in some places you feel yourself in an inhabited island lost in the ocean, in other places - you travel back in time.

Lagoons, long isolated beaches, white sand dunes and desert, mountains, canyons, incredible plants and unique dragon tree forest.

All those treasures look so wild. But civilization is coming with huge steps.. in some years Socotra will change drastically, like Maldives did.

The treasure that is not changing- is Socotri people. So kind, so happy with little and ready to give you the least they have if you just respect them.

Now it is your turn to discover Socotra!

Adopt a dragon! Amur Teibe took a part of the dragon tree nursery under protection, creating a strong fence and assuring the survey. Now you can adopt your own baby-dragon tree in Socotra! A customized plate with your name and date of adoption will be fixed close to your tree. The adoption fee is used to maintain the initiative and create new conservation areas. On the remote island of Socotra, the iconic Dragon’s Blood Tree (Dracaena cinnabari) stands as a symbol of resilience and mystery. Now Magical Dragon Trees of Socotra need our support. Before becoming an adult tree, they spend many years being vulnerable as goats love to eat their tender leaves. The goats are a very important part of life for local people, they walk around everywhere, so the renewal is possible only in protected areas. Baby dragon trees develop a single stem. Around the age of 20-25 years, they begin to branch out. At this moment it is high enough to escape from goats attacks. Only once in 10 years happen each new phase of growth. This means that every decade, the tree will undergo another round of branching, where each previous branch splits into two new ones. Imagine how many centuries are needed to create the distinctive umbrella-like canopy. By the time they reach their “adulthood” at 100 years, they stand tall and proud for centuries. Some trees live up to 1.000 years, showcasing nature’s patience and power.

You know, that singing cave exists ?! Hoq Cave is a key highlight of Socotra, adding to the island’s reputation as a unique destination with diverse natural and historical treasures. Hoq Cave is one of the island’s most significant natural landmarks and a geological marvel. It is a limestone cave, renowned for its immense size, striking stalactites and stalagmites, and calcite crystals. These formations have developed over thousands of years and create a surreal underground landscape. The cave is about 3 kilometers long, but visitors can explore about 1.5 kilometers into the cave without specialized equipment. As you venture deeper, you encounter various chambers, underground pools, and expansive corridors. Hoq cave remains cool and humid, making it a refreshing escape from the island’s warm climate. Though the trekking to the cave takes 1-2 hours, depends on your shape. Archaeologists have discovered ancient inscriptions on the cave’s walls, dating back to the 3rd century BCE. These inscriptions, written in different languages like Indian Brahmi script, ancient Greek, and South Arabian, indicate that Hoq Cave was used as a religious or ritual site in ancient times by sailors and traders who passed through Socotra.

Have you ever tried to milk the goat? Did you succeed? The introduction of goats to Socotra Island is believed to have occurred centuries ago, most likely by early human inhabitants or traders. Socotra, located in the Arabian Sea near the Horn of Africa, has been inhabited for thousands of years by various groups, including Arab, Persian, and South Asian seafarers. These people likely brought goats for their utility as a source of meat, milk, and hide. Goats can survive in difficult environments, so it is valuable resource on an isolated island like Socotra, which has limited agricultural options due to its arid climate. The exact historical details are unclear, but it is widely accepted that goats were introduced as part of the island’s domesticated animals by early settlers or traders navigating this key stop along ancient maritime trade routes.

Listen to the disappearing Soqotri language. It has only oral form. It is a member of the Modern South Arabian languages, a subgroup of the South Semitic branch of the Semitic family. These languages are distinct from the more widely known Arabic and Hebrew. The Modern South Arabian languages, which include Soqotri, Mehri, Shehri, Harsusi, Bathari, and Hobyot, are believed to have developed in the southern Arabian Peninsula long before the spread of Arabic with the rise of Islam in the 7th century CE. The history of the Soqotri language is a testament to the resilience of a linguistic tradition that has endured through centuries of change and isolation. In our days language faces challenges in the modern world, mostly elders use it, kids speak Soqotri only at home, so they lose it little by little.
