What and how people ate in the ancient world
14.99 €
The ancient Egyptians, Sumerians, Greeks, Romans, and Scythians had a very different diet than we do today. They did not know potatoes, tomatoes, bell peppers, corn and eggplants, sugar was used only as medicine, and they had only heard of bananas and oranges. There was no tea, coffee or cocoa on their table, and the strength of alcoholic beverages did not exceed 14-16 degrees.
What did the inhabitants of the Greco-Roman Oikumene - slaves and peasants, pharaohs and emperors - eat? What dishes and utensils did they use? How were everyday meals and festive feasts? About all this - in the book of journalist Olga Kolobova and archaeologist Valery Ivanov, working under the common pseudonym Oleg Ivik.
