Whats a spelt cake (or far cake)?

0

One sometimes encounters the term “spelt cake” in texts about Roman religious rituals. It is a cake made from the grain far, traditionally used as an offering given agricultural deities such as Ceres or Tellus. Note that the word “spelt” is a mistranslation of the Latin word “far”, which in fact is the grain which in English is called emmer.
