Nine subfossil figs of a parthenocarpic (and therefore sterile) type dating to about 9400–9200 BC were found in the early Neolithic village Gilgal I (in the Jordan Valley, 13km north of Jericho). The find precedes the domestication of wheat, barley, and legumes, and may thus be the first known instance of agriculture. It is proposed that this sterile but desirable type was planted and cultivated intentionally, one thousand years before the next crops were domesticated (wheat and rye). [15] [16] [17] In ancient Palestine, fig-cakes were often produced from selected ripe figs. [18]As the population of California grew, especially after the gold rush, a number of other cultivars were brought there by persons and nurserymen from the east coast of the US and from France and England. By the end of the 19th century, it became apparent that California had the potential for being an ideal fig producing state because of its Mediterranean-like climate and latitude of 38 degrees, lining up San Francisco with İzmir, Turkey. G. P. Rixford first brought true Smyrna figs to California in 1880. The most popular cultivar of Smyrna-type fig is Calimyrna, being a name that combines "California" and "Smyrna". The cultivar, however, is not one that was produced by a breeding program, and instead is from one of the cuttings brought to California in the latter part of the 19th century. It is identical to the cultivar Lob Injir that has been grown in Turkey for centuries. [25] a b The Fig: its History, Culture, and Curing, Gustavus A. Eisen, Washington, Govt. print. off., 1901 You may also notice a white powder on some dried figs. This is called bloom. The bloom is rich in nutrients, and it is one of the precious features of high quality figs. Eric Brandon Roberts (2012). The Parables of Jesus Christ:: A Brief Analysis. Booktango.

Figs may have some beneficial effects on the skin, especially in people with allergic dermatitis — or dry, itchy skin as a result of allergies. LC-MS/MS was conducted with a Sciex QTRAP® 5500 triple quadruple MS/MS (Sciex, Foster City, CA, USA) coupled with an Agilent 1290 binary UHPLC (Agilent Technologies, Waldbronn, Germany). The chromatographic conditions were strictly followed as described elsewhere (Sulyok et al. 2020). Quantification The method performance for 43 metabolites in terms of recoveries and limits of detection (LOD) are provided in supporting information Table S1. Within-laboratory repeatability ( n = 7) was found to range between 6.0 and 12.4% for aflatoxins in dried figs (Sulyok et al. 2020). Aflatoxins in figs from 2017 and 2018 harvests
