One of the greatest soldiers and commanders in the history of Dalmatia was indeed the Emperor Diocletian, who came from Solin, a small town near Split.
This great military commander felt the call of duty throughout his life. He was a tall and strong man, with blue eyes, somewhat short with words, but a great believer, an intellectual. During his stay in Dalmatia, he built one of the most famous palaces of the Roman Empire, Diocletian's Palace in Split. What impressed this giant were the beauties and treasures of this region. However, what caught his attention the most, and which he also gifted to his soldiers, was a small humble fruit full of nutritional values.
Diocletian liked how such a simple and juicy fruit bear so many times, the more it was picked for him, the more it returned. This grateful and abundant fruit is a fig, and a cake was prepared from it during the emperor's time in the belief that it would restore strength to those who eat it.
Did you know that they have already devised a kind of energy bar that gave people energy and strength for better and better accomplishing goals and daily tasks?
Smokvenjak used to be known as a "cake" for soldiers. Packed with energy and vitamins, it restored the strength of soldiers after hard days and nights. Emperor Diocletian knew that with this small but significant addition to the diet, he could make his soldiers even stronger and better.
All that was once known we have decided to check today!
Figs are indeed rich in iron, phosphorus, potassium, calcium, magnesium, vitamins B6, E, C, and vitamin A, and are a better source of fiber than most fruits. Dried figs are considered superfood available all year round.
