The cypress tree is considered a mourning tree according to Greek mythology and is often grown in cemeteries for this reason. It is also associated with the god of the underworld, Hades. Phoenicians and Cretans used the wood of this tree to build ships and houses. Egyptians made sarcophagi from it and the Greeks carved statues of their gods with it. According to legend, the cross of Jesus Christ is made of this wood, another reason why cypress is associated with death. Ironically, the botanical name cypress is derived from the Greek 'Sempervirens', meaning 'eternal life'.
