Okay all you botany grads, what type of plant/tree is this?  The photos are from Sicily.

That looks like a persimmon tree.

 Sure looks like a persimmon tree.  I think my dad had a driver, 3W and 5W made out of that.

Ding ding ding!!!

@billchao was correct, along with everyone else who concurred with his response.  The tree is found throughout Sicily, although I suspect it is not a native plant.  And the tree is used for its fruit, not its wood.
