Overview
The genus Boswellia, also known as frankincense, belongs to the Burseraceae family. This genus is cultivated in Africa (Sudan, Eritrea, Ethiopia, Somalia and Kenya), southern Arabia (Oman and Yemen) and India. Frankincense exudes from the bark of the Boswellia tree in the form of 'tears' after a series of incisions. Human civilisation has a long history of using frankincense, which has been used for various purposes throughout the ages.
