Truffles were rarely used during the [[Middle Ages]]. Truffle hunting is mentioned by [[Bartolomeo Platina]], the papal historian, in 1481, when he recorded that the sows of [[Notza]] were without equal in hunting truffles, but they should be muzzled to prevent them from eating the prize.<ref name="benjamin95">{{Citation |last=Benjamin |first=D.
