Dveláh, dried figs after they are pressed in a circular-shape are called dveláh, and they are no longer sold by the measure, by rather by weight

Round and rectangular molds: Be apprised that there are three kinds of dried figs. There are those who dry out each one individually and, afterwards, press them together in a vessel, just as they do for dates [of the palm tree], and these are called 'grogeroth' (= dried figs). There is [another kind consisting of] the most succulent figs whose sweet, viscous substance is abundant, [which are] kneaded like dough and are then formed into what resembles round or rectangular loaves, and these are called 'dveláh' (= fig-cake). And those who make them are called 'qoṣǝʻei qǝṣīʻot' (= the preparers of dried figs). The third kind is the worst of them all, which are figs whose seeds are large and brittle, and when they are left for an extended time they become sour and are called the 'vinegar of winter fruits'., s.v. Terumot, chapter 3
