[Sca-cooks] Is couscous Medieval?

[Pat Griffin]

I was under the impression that while couscous could have been made during
our period of interest, that we have no documentation to that fact.  The
question has come up on (of all things) the medieval encampments list, and
set me to wondering.  Can one of my dear friends tell me what the earliest
reference seems to be?
