this paper, the issue of a plane tree in the village of Zar-Abad, located in the Alamoot of Qazveen (Iran), known as "the bleeding plane" is examined, from an anthropological perspective. The author regards the issue as a "totally social phenomenon", and tries to look at it from different angles, exploiting various techniques. It is found that the planeʹs secretion is not blood, but is a type of resin that, unlike others, dries out,. No link was also established between the secretion and the day of ʹAshoora, as it can be noticed in other times during the year. There is, however, no deception, because what people conceive is the result of their attitude towards the phenomenon, and what they feel counts more than the reality perse.
