Ancient Greek cuisine
Ancient Greek cuisine was characterized by its frugality, reflecting agricultural hardship. It was founded on the ""Mediterranean triad"": wheat, olive oil, and wine.Our knowledge of ancient Greek cuisine and eating habits is derived from literary and artistic evidence. Our literary knowledge comes mostly from Aristophanes' comedies and quotes preserved by 2nd–3rd century AD grammarian Athenaeus; artistic information is provided by black- and red-figure vase-painting and terracotta figurines.
