| 341 | I would like to find anything that will either support or disprove the following statement. "Just like Thentis is the only place Black Wine bean plants grow, so does the Sa-Tarna grow only in the Tahari. The grain can only grow in the heat." Thank you in advance for all you do here. I have spent many hours researching different topics and I deeply appreciate the answers to the questions I have asked. I look forward to your findings.
Answer
To answer your question I simply went here - Food and Drink
Then I clicked on Bread / Grain
And finally clicked on Sa-Tarna
This page shows every reference made to bread and Sa-Tarna.
Just scanning down the page I found five relevant quotes which disprove the statement included in your question. I posted the five quotes below but there are more.
If Sa-Tarna can only grow in the heat, why are there fields of Sa-Tarna around Tharna, Ko-ro-ba and Ar?
About three or four pasangs distant, through the thinning swamp trees, I could see the verdant meadows of Ar's Sa-Tarna land.
Tarnsman of Gor    Book 1    Page 94
I set her down on a bed of green clover. Beyond it, some hundred yards away, I could see the border of a yellow field of Sa-Tarna and a yellow thicket of Ka-la-na trees.
Tarnsman of Gor    Book 1    Page 96
Far to my left I saw a splendid field of Sa-Tarna, bending beautifully in the wind, that tall yellow grain that forms a staple in the Gorean diet.
Outlaw of Gor    Book 2    Page 19
"Who are you?" asked the girl, her accent suggesting the Sa-Tarna fields above Ar and toward the Tamber Gulf.
Priest-Kings of Gor    Book 3    Page 51
Four caravans had fallen spoils to the fierce, swiftly striking tarnsman of Treve. And his men had fired dozens of fields, destroying Sa-Tarna grains. The smoke of two of these fields had been visible even from the high bridges of Ko-ro-ba herself.
Captive of Gor    Book 7    Pages 189 - 190
