It is also thought to have medical characteristics and the ability to cure certain disorders.
The structure of Hoka trees is distinctive, with branches and offshoots radiating from the central trunk. They are most typically seen around oases in desert settings. The Hoka seed is a gorgeous red-oval structure that hovers high up in the palm-like form of the trees, resembling a cricket ball. Ancient Egyptians employed these fruits in their funerary ceremonies.

Hoka seeds are used to make the native 'Tadi.'
