Default Can you help ID a massive tree in Rhodes?

Hiya
Just come back from Rhodes, Greece, and there are a couple of trees I would like help to ID. First is this one which was common around town and often massive with evergreen leaves, berries and these threads I'm hanging onto. Any ideas?

QuirkyQuercus,

My guess would be Ficus microcarpa var. hillii (Hill's fig). However I would like to see the colour of the fruit when its ripe.
