- AD 77–79, Gaius Plinius Secundus (author), Karl Friedrich Theodor Mayhoff (editor), Naturalis Historia (1906), book XV, chapter xxviii:
- ab his locum amplitudine vindicaverint, quae cessere auctoritate, nuces iuglandes, quamquam et ipsae nuptialium fescenninorum comites, multum pineis minores universitate eademque portione ampliores nucleo.
- The walnut, which would almost claim precedence of the sorb in size, yields the palm to it in reference to the esteem in which they are respectively held; and this, although it is so favourite an accompaniment of the Fescennine songs at nuptials. This nut, taken as a whole, is very considerably smaller than the pine nut, but the kernel is larger in proportion. ― translation from: John Bostock and Henry Thomas Riley, The Natural History (1855), book XV: “The Natural History of the Fruit-trees”, chapter xxiv (xxii): ‘Nine Varieties of the Nut’
