Origin of FIG
Middle English fige,
from Anglo-French, from Old Occitan figa,
from Vulgar Latin *fica, from Latin ficus fig tree, fig
First Known Use: 13th century
Any plant of the genus Ficus, in the mulberry family, especially Ficus carica, the common fig. Yielding the well-known figs of
commerce, Ficus carica is native to
an area from Asiatic Turkey to northern India, but natural seedlings grow in
most Mediterranean countries, where figs are used extensively, both fresh and
dried. It is a bush or small tree with broad, rough, deciduous leaves.
Hundreds of different varieties are grown in various
parts of the world. The fig was one of the first fruit trees to come under
cultivation. Its fruit contains significant amounts of calcium, potassium,
phosphorus, and iron.
