Botanically Quercus, of the family of the Fagaceae (the same family as beech and chestnut), a very rich genus of species (about 450) distributed in all areas of the world, both in temperate and tropical regions and formed by evergreen or deciduous trees and shrubs.
Always considered a symbol of longevity, strength and prosperity, it is indissolubly linked to European civilizations, so much so that it has always been credited as the king of trees, with significant symbolic and religious value. It is almost universally considered symbol of durability, long life, prosperity, dignity, majesty and especially strength.
The most common oak in Italy is that of Dalechamps (Quercus dalechampii), similar to oak, with which it shares many morphological characteristics, so as to be defined with the common name of southern oak.
In Italy it is present in the southern regions, from Salento to Calabria and to Sicily, sometimes in specimens of considerable size. In addition to spontaneous species, which have mainly forestry and naturalistic relevance, we then have naturalized species, used both in the woods and in the gardens, with varieties and hybrids specially selected.
In the Spineto grows a special type of oak locally defined Cariglio, whose Latin name is Quercus Cerris.
