The photo shows a very large, old olive tree. The tweet is a humorous observation, possibly a lighthearted exaggeration. The joke, in Turkish, plays on the idea of the tree's age and its supposed witness to historical events. The tweeter (Ediz Çanakçı) is mocking the idea that a 2900-year-old olive tree could have *actually* witnessed the events mentioned (the writing of the *Iliad*, the golden age of Athens, the rise of the Roman Empire, and the birth of Jesus). It's a playful, almost absurd, claim. The humor comes from the juxtaposition of a very old tree and the significant historical events it's purported to have seen. The tweet is likely meant to be funny, not taken literally.
