The 'santol' is a tropical fruit that most likely traces back to a southeast Asian origin. Researchers and scientists tend to point to origins in the former Indochina and in the Malay Peninsula. The fruit's scientific name is Sandoricum koetjape. But Sandoricum indicum and S. nervosum are accepted synonyms. The 'santol' has just about as many common names as it does the number of countries in which it can be grown. For example, the English term traditionally is 'wild mangosteen'. But common names from other languages may also be used and understood as acceptable terms for the fruit. Thus, the fruit may be called 'donka' from the Sinhalese language of Sri Lanka, 'gratawn' from the Thai, 'kompem reach' from the Khmer language of Cambodia, and 'tong' from the Lao language of Laos. Additionally, just the word 'santol' opens up many doors from the Philippines through Indonesia to Malaysia.
