In Ancient Rome , panis focacius was a flat bread baked on the hearth .The word is derived from the Latin focus 'hearth, place for baking'
A hearth is a brick- or stone -lined fireplace, with or without an oven, used for heating and originally also used for cooking food.
For centuries, the hearth was such an integral part of a home, usually its central and most important feature, that the concept has been generalized to refer to a homeplace or household, as in the terms "hearth and home" and "keep the home fires burning"
