“For Latin-speakers call the chickpea a ‘cicer’. […] And when, as governor of Sicily, he was having a silver offering-plate made to the gods, [Cicero] had the first two of his names (the Marcus and the Tullius) inscribed, but instead of the third, as a joke he ordered the artisan to carve a chickpea next to the letters.”
— Plutarch, Life of Cicero, 1.4, 1.6
