Melons were grown in Europe for the first time in Sardinia
The oldest melon seeds of the Mediterranean basin were found on the island of Sardinia. The forty-seven melon seeds are from 2000 BC.
On the basis of the previous findings, the scientists assumed that the first melon growers were Middle Eastern nations and the Greeks, but the seeds found in Sardinia, however, show that the first people who started to grow melons were living on the island of Sardinia. (Sárközy Júlia, MTI)
