Des semis et des clones by Malou Delplancke, Yildiz Aumeeruddy-Thomas

“…This is why the status of the almond varies from that of a tolerated, to a fostered and even a highly domesticated tree, which prompts us to think about the domestication of a species in its imbricated spatial and temporal framework, concretely expressed in territories and agricultural landscapes. Rooted in time and space, an almond tree is a link between generations, between the living and the forebears, tradition and modernity, but also between what originates from here (beldi) and what comes from elsewhere (romi). …”
