Forest

2008-11-29T20:10:15Z

PercyH:

'''Forests''' are now considered to be collections of [[tree|trees]] as a whole, or large areas of trees. Tropical Rainforest is found around the Equatorial regions, and has perhaps the greatest number of kinds of life of any habitat, and a major role in taking in [[carbon dioxide]] and releasing [[oxygen]]. Temperate forests are also important.

The word 'forest' did not used to mean 'a place of trees', however. 'Forest' was a Norman French word, brought to England after 1066. It had the meaning of 'a place of deer (for hunting)'. The Normans designated large areas as 'forest', so that the king and his nobles could hunt there. 'Forest Law' applied, with severe penalties for those 'Saxons' caught killing, or attempting to kill, 'beasts of the chase' (deer, wild boar, etc.). An English forest did not have to be tree-covered: some were mainly wooded forests, like The New Forest, others were mainly moorland, like The Forest of Bowland. [[Sherwood Forest]] at the time the [[Robin Hood]] legend is set was in fact mainly heathland (heather etc.) and had relatively few, small woods.
