         Abyssinia; the bark is used in Farther India to stupefy
         fish; the ripe fruit is edible, when green it is an
         anthelmintic; the fermented juice is used as a
         beverage; the seeds yield a medicinal oil called
         zachun. The African name of the tree is {hajilij}.
