The palm tree is a very ancient and sacred tree whose name is often mentioned in the Holy Quran. The historian has described it as the princess of trees. Southerners believe that palm is the only legacy of their family. In the oral history of the Minab, there are many palm trees. The palm plays an important role in the traditions, customs, and beliefs of the people. Palm tree is important in all respects for the inhabitants of the south. He provided food and lodging, as well as wicker industries to use in the affairs of life. By adopting the content –analysis approach and through library based data and interview, this research sheds light on several aspects of this tree and its place in oral literature of Iran (riddle, proverb, idioms, beliefs and songs). This tree has been important for a very long time in the lives of the people of this region and it is not an exaggeration to say that every palm, as a breadwinner, can be part of the family economy. Palm is one of the children of the family and his unit of enumeration. Sometimes, the inhabitants of this region have attributed to it a mortal character.
Keywords: Palm, oral literature, folk literature, Minab
