ʻO nā pine ka lua o nā conifers maʻamau i ko mākou nahele. ʻO ka ʻoiaʻiʻo, ʻo nā pine nā conifers maʻamau i ka honua. Ua kapa ʻia lākou he pine. Aia ma luna o hoʻokahi haneli mau ʻano lāʻau pine. Hoʻohui pū lākou i kahi genus.
Hiki i nā lāʻau pine ke ola a hiki i 500 mau makahiki, a i kekahi manawa a hiki i 1000 mau makahiki. Aia ma ke kuahiwi a hiki i ka laina laau. Piʻi nā lāʻau pine a hiki i 50 mau mika ke kiʻekiʻe. ʻO ko lākou anawaena a hiki i hoʻokahi a me ka hapalua mika. Nalo pinepine nā lāʻau paina kahiko i ka ʻili a kau wale ma nā lālā ʻōpio. E hāʻule nā kui ma hope o ʻehā a ʻehiku mau makahiki.
ʻO nā ʻōpuʻu me nā pua he kāne a he wahine paha. Lawe ka makani i ka pollen mai kekahi opuu a i kekahi opuu. Hoʻokumu ʻia nā cones pōʻai mai kēia, a kū pololei i luna. I loko o hoʻokahi makahiki, hoʻomaka lākou e hāʻule i lalo. He ʻēheu ko nā ʻanoʻano i hiki i ka makani ke lawe mamao. ʻO kēia ka mea e hiki ai i nā lāʻau pine ke hoʻonui maikaʻi.
He Koe Pine Wahine
ʻAi nā manu, nā squirrels, nā ʻiole, a me nā holoholona ulu lāʻau ʻē aʻe i nā hua paina. ʻAi pinepine nā dia, dia ʻulaʻula, chamois, ibex, a me nā holoholona ʻē aʻe i nā hua a i ʻole nā ʻōpuʻu ʻōpiopio. Nui nā pepeke e hānai i ka nectar o nā lāʻau paina. Nui nā ʻano pipi e noho ana ma lalo o ka ʻili.
Pehea e hoʻohana ai ke kanaka i nā pine?
Hoʻohana nui ke kanaka i ka lāʻau pine. Loaʻa iā ia ka nui o ka resin a no laila ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi no nā hale o waho ma mua o ka lāʻau spruce no ka mea ʻaʻole hiki ke popopo. No laila, hana ʻia nā ʻāina he nui i ka pine. Ma muli o ka resin, honi ikaika a ʻoluʻolu ka lāʻau pine.
Mai ka Palaeolithic Age a hiki i ka hoʻomaka ʻana o ke kenekulia 20, ua hoʻohana ʻia ka [[resin (material)|kienspan]] no ke kukui. ʻO ka pinepine o kēia lāʻau mai nā aʻa pine, no ka mea, ʻoi aku ka nui o ka resin. Hoʻokomo ʻia nā kohu pine i loko o kahi paʻa e like me nā lāʻau lahilahi a hoʻomālamalama ʻia e like me ke kukui liʻiliʻi.
Ua unuhi ʻia ka resin mai ka lāʻau pine. Ua hana ʻia kēia ma nā ʻano ʻokoʻa ʻelua: ua ʻoki ʻia ka ʻili lāʻau a kau ʻia kahi bākeke ma lalo o kahi ākea. A i ʻole ua hoʻomehana ʻia nā lāʻau holoʻokoʻa i loko o ka umu i ʻole e wela ke ahi, akā ua pau ka resin.
ʻO ka resin ke kāpili maikaʻi loa ma mua o ka Middle Ages. Ua hui pū ʻia me ka momona holoholona, ua hoʻohana ʻia ʻo ia ma ke ʻano he lubricant no nā axles o nā kaʻa like ʻole a me nā kaʻa. Ma hope, hiki ke unuhi ʻia ka turpentine mai ka resin a hoʻohana ʻia e hana i nā pena no ka pena pena, no ka laʻana.
