Indian fig tree,
Ficus bengalensis, whose branches root
themselves like new trees over a large area. The roots then give rise to
more trunks and branches. Because of this characteristic and its
longevity, this tree is considered immortal and is an integral part of
the myths and legends of India. Even today, the banyan tree is the focal
point of village life and the village council meets under the shade of
this tree.
