Let L/k be a Galois extension of fields with group G and let A be the category of k-algebras isomorphic to finite products of finite field subextensions of L/k. It is known that, with appropriately defined covers, A is dual to the underlying category of a Grothendieck topology T [5, Ch. I, Theorem 4.2] and that (strict) cohomological dimension of G may be characterized via TCech cohomology with coefficients in either additive (product-preserving) functors or sheaves [5, Ch. I, Theorems 4.3 and 5.9].
