alphitomancy : ウィキペディア英語版 | alphitomancy Alphitomancy (from Greek ἄλφιτον ''alphiton'', 'barley', and μαντεία ''manteia'', 'divination') is a form of divination involving barley cakes or loaves of barley bread.〔Georg Luck, ''Arcana Mundi: Magic and the Occult in the Greek and Roman Worlds'' (The Johns Hopkins University Press, 1985, reissued 2006), p. 495.〕 When someone in a group was suspected of a crime, the members of the group would be fed barley cakes or slices of barley bread. Supposedly, the guilty party would get indigestion, while all others would feel well.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.themystica.com/mystica/articles/a/alphitomancy.html )〕 ==See also==
