What Food Was Like in Ancient Rome 2,000 Years Ago – A Historical Documentary
In this historical documentary, you'll discover what food was like in Ancient Rome 2,000 years ago and what people actually ate during the Roman Empire. What did the poor, patricians, soldiers, and city dwellers eat? How was bread prepared, food stored, and olive oil, wine, fish, grains, and vegetables used? And how did real Roman cuisine differ from the image of luxury we typically imagine?
This film will show the everyday side of ancient life: the journey of food from field and market to hearth and table. We'll look at how food influenced everyday life, social differences, the rhythm of the city, and the very structure of Roman society. Behind the familiar foods lay hard labor, dependence on harvests, trade, and the entire supply chain of a vast empire.
