Two-Thousand-Year-Old Tree

This photo was taken in the early 20^th century and shows two people on the ground and one standing on top of a ladder in front of a two-thousand-year-old tree that was cut down by hand in California using that long saw standing next to the ladder. This is actually kind of sad given that the tree had been around for so many centuries and had survived battles, wars, and brushfires only to get cut down by humans who undoubtedly wanted to use it for logging purposes.
