In Latin, watermelon is Citrullus Lanatus. Surprisingly, the fruit is related to cucumbers, pumpkins and squash. From ancient depictions in Egyptian hieroglyphics, it is believed that the first recorded watermelon harvest occurred nearly 5,000 years ago. Watermelons were often placed in the burial tombs of Kings to nourish them in the afterlife.
