Description
Herodot wrote, that incense is gained in India, from trees that are all the time guarded by little, colourful, winged snakes. They can be driven away only with smoke. I like this story very much, so I drew this fairytale tree with the guardians. I imagined them rather like small dragons than snakes.

Anyway I'd like to recommend Herodot and his amazing book . When you read it, you can see the world like people 2500 years ago - with its gods, faires, unknown lands and philosophy. No history book is able to render this atmosphere.
