Botanical Aspects
Botanical Aspects
Ojon, scientifically known as Elaeis oleifera, is a species of palm native to the tropical region of Central America. It is characterized by its large, feather-like leaves, which can reach up to 5 meters in length. The plant produces oval fruits containing a single seed called Ojon nuts. These nuts are rich in oil and extracted through traditional processes by local communities. Ojon is valued for its contribution to biodiversity and its cultural and economic importance in the regions where it is found. Its lush beauty and ability to provide valuable oil make Ojon a fascinating botanical species.

Fun Facts
Fun Facts
The history of Ojon oil is deeply rooted in the traditions of indigenous communities in Central America and the Amazon region, where knowledge of its benefits transcended generations. The exceptional properties of the oil, extracted from the nut of the Elaeis oleifera palm, were initially discovered by these ancestral cultures, which valued the oil for its medicinal applications and its cosmetic virtues.
Within these communities, Ojon oil was more than just a simple product; it played a central role in healing rituals and ceremonies, symbolizing purity and strength. It was often used to revitalize the body and the soul, reflecting its spiritual and physical importance.
Specifically among women, Ojon oil was a treasure passed down from generation to generation, used to nourish and beautify the hair. This beauty ritual shared between mothers and daughters ensured that the hair remained strong, shiny, and healthy, consolidating Ojon oil as an indispensable element in the personal care practices of these communities.
A fascinating aspect of the Elaeis oleifera palm is its unique life cycle, particularly the phenomenon of procumbency. When the plant reaches about 15 years old, its stem (trunk) bends until it touches the ground, while the crown of leaves remains upright, facing upwards. This process allows for the emergence of new roots from the leaf crown while the original stem slowly decomposes, making room for the growth of a new stem. This peculiar behavior of the plant, which always falls to the same side, gave rise to the name "caiaué," which means "walking plant" in the language of indigenous peoples, illustrating the symbiotic relationship between these communities and their environment, as well as their profound understanding of natural cycles.
