Note 1: I need to point out a mistake in the video. The beans shown at 9:23, also known as 'common beans', were actually introduced to Europe from the Americas during the 16th and 17th centuries A.D. These particular beans were not part of the diet in ancient Greece and were unknown in the region at the time. My apologies for the oversight!
Since we are well into the Archaid period on the ancient Greek series, I thought I should make some videos about the everyday life of the Greeks. The topic of this video is on the diet of the ancient Greeks. In the next video will talk about the various drinks that they enjoyed.
