Its name is derived from the pilchard industry in Cornwall prior to the 20th century when a 'huer' (cliff top lookout) helped locate shoals of fish. The huer would shout 'Hevva!, Hevva!' to alert the boats to the location of the pilchard shoals.{{citation needed|date=August 2014}} Cornish tradition states that Hevva cake was baked by the huers on their return to their homes, the cake being ready by the time the crews returned to land.{{citation needed|date=March 2014}} Alternatively, it's known as heavy cake as it's not "light" as it is not risen in the same way as yeast cake or a seedy bun. The cakes are about 1/2" thick, with a criss-cross pattern scored across the top, representing the fishing nets.[1][2][3] References1. ^{{cite web|author=|url=http://www.anglotopia.net/countries/england/seven-traditional-foods-of-cornwall-cornish-cuisine-guide/ |title=Seven Traditional Foods of Cornwall - Cornish Cuisine Guide |publisher=Anglotopia.net |date=2010-12-05 |accessdate=2014-03-16}} 2. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.pinterest.com/pin/92394229828943664/ |title=Pin by UK Beach Days on Fishing History and Heritage UK |publisher=Pinterest |date= |accessdate=2014-03-16}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://feastsandfestivals.blogspot.com/2010/04/8-may-helston-flora-day.html |title='Feasts and Festivals': 8 May: Helston Flora Day |publisher=Feastsandfestivals.blogspot.com |date=2010-04-08 |accessdate=2014-03-16}} See also
