Food in Ancient Greece

Food in Ancient Greece
The Greek diet consisted of foods that were easily raised in the rocky terrain of Greece’s landscape. Breakfast was eaten just after sunrise and consisted of bread dipped in wine. Lunch was again bread dipped in wine along with some olives, figs, cheese or dried fish. Supper was the main meal of each day. It was eaten near sunset. Fish was the main source of protein in the Greek diet. Wine was the main drink in ancient Greece. The Greeks did not have any eating utensils, so they ate with their hands. Men often gathered for dinner parties called symposiums.

Greek Slaves Slave woman playing a kithara. You can tell she is a slave because she has short hair. In ancient Greece, most people who worked at jobs - teachers, doctors, nurses, construction workers, policemen, hair-dressers, mail carriers, cooks, nannies, bakers, miners, farmhands, dancers, musicians, craftspeople, and accountants - were slaves instead of free people. This was partly because free Greek people had no money to pay workers with (until the Archaic period), and because they had no clocks (to measure how long somebody had worked). But it was also because it is cheaper to force people to work for you than it is to pay them. And, if people are slaves, they do not vote in your democracy - only free men could vote. A man cooking - probably a slave(Louvre Museum, Paris) Most people who were slaves in Greece had been born free. There were a lot of jobs, and so about a third of the people living in ancient Greece were slaves. A slave nanny taking the baby (see the loom behind her?) or

Befőzés és tartósítás biztonságosan Mit is keres a forró üveg a pokróc alatt? Miért olyan nagy baj, ha van egy icipici lyuk az üveg tetején? Hogyan tartósítsam a töltött paprikát vagy a spagetti szószt? Tippek és trükkök a nagyi fortélyain innen és túl. Biztonság mindenek előtt! A befőzés látszólag nem különösebben bonyolult mutatvány, azonban ha nem vesszük komolyan az egyes részműveleteket, akkor akár súlyos ételmérgezéssel is végződhet egy-egy barackbefőttel feldobott téli este. Ne sajnáljuk az időt a forralásra! Kezdő szint: gyümölcsök és lekvárok A viszonylag savas ételek tartósítása a legkönnyebben kivitelezhető és ezáltal legelterjedtebb hazánkban. Száraz dunsztolással: Főzzük meg a gyümölcsöket (lekvárt, paradicsomlevet) a receptben előírt módon és hőfokon, majd a még forró ételt rakjuk üvegekbe, csavarjuk rá a tetőt, és jól bugyoláljuk be őket rongyokba, pokrócokban, régi dunyhákba! Haladóknak: készételek tartósítása A cikk megjelenése a Nemzetgazdasági Minisztérium FV-I-11-D-0007 pályázat keretében valósult meg.

Ancient Greek Economy Bronze Age storage jars at Knossos The Greeks did not have the same idea of an economy that we have. The word "economy" is Greek, but to the Greeks it meant something like "rules of a household" (the "eco" part of economy is from the Greek word for house, "oikos", and the "nomy" part is from their word for law). Because they did not think about the economy as a whole, it is hard to talk of a government economic policy. But even without any policy, people do still make things, use things, buy things, and sell things, and that is what an economy is. Even as far back as the Stone Age, many Greeks were sailors, and sailed all over the Eastern Mediterranean. Finally, other Greeks were pirates, who simply raided wherever they could and took whatever they could get.

Ancient Greece Élelmiszer-tartósítás Az élelmiszer-tartósítás célja a minőségmegőrzés. A mikroorganizmusok (penészek, gombák) elszaporodásához megfelelő hőmérséklet és víz szükséges. A károsítást a mikroorganizmusok salakanyaga végzi (toxin). A só és a cukor megköti a vizet, ezzel tartósít. A víz kivonásával is lehet tartósítani: kávé – nescafé, tej – tejpor, tejsűrítmény, gabona – gabonapehely Az érett hús savas kémhatású, a romlott hús nyálkás, lúgos, színe szivárványos. Alkalmazott módszerek[szerkesztés | forrásszöveg szerkesztése] Fizikai tartósítás[szerkesztés | forrásszöveg szerkesztése] Szárítás, aszalás[szerkesztés | forrásszöveg szerkesztése] A fizikai tartósítás lényege, hogy az adott élelmiszert tartósítószer nélkül tároljuk. Majdnem mindegyik hazai gyümölcsünk és gombánk tartósítható aszalással[1], a szakszerűen aszalt gyümölcsök megőrzik az eredeti gyümölcs szinte valamennyi értékét. Hűtés, fagyasztás[szerkesztés | forrásszöveg szerkesztése] Hűtésről beszélünk, ha az adott élelmiszert 0 és 8 °C között tároljuk.

Ancient Greece - History, mythology, art, war, culture, society, and architecture. Greek Alphabet The letters in the Greek alphabet presented below are used for printed Ancient Greek texts. The earliest Greek texts that have survived were written with a radically different script called Linear B. For a detailed and wonderfully well argued discussion of the origins of the Greek alphabet, see Roger D. Woodard’s book, Greek Writing from Knossos to Homer. You can find fonts for displaying or writing Greek text as well as utilities for converting older fonts to the new Unicode standarde on our fonts page. Three sets of pronunciation suggestions are given in the table below: first the pronunciation of each letter in Modern Greek, then the reconstructed Hellenistic Koine pronunciation, and finally the reconstructed pronunciation for the Classical period (before about 350 BCE). The Erasmian pronunciation used in many schools to teach Biblical Greek and sometimes even Classical Greek is not given on this page. Modern th as in then (but not thin.

Ancient Greece The Parthenon, a temple dedicated to Athena, located on the Acropolis in Athens, is one of the most representative symbols of the culture and sophistication of the ancient Greeks. Ancient Greece was a Greek civilization belonging to a period of Greek history that lasted from the Archaic period of the 8th to 6th centuries BC to the end of antiquity (ca. 600 AD). Immediately following this period was the beginning of the Early Middle Ages and the Byzantine era.[1] Included in ancient Greece is the period of Classical Greece, which flourished during the 5th to 4th centuries BC. Classical Greece began with the repelling of a Persian invasion by Athenian leadership. Classical Greek culture, especially philosophy, had a powerful influence on the Roman Empire, which carried a version of it to many parts of the Mediterranean Basin and Europe, for which reason Classical Greece is generally considered to be the seminal culture which provided the foundation of modern Western culture.[2][3][4][5]

Minoan civilization Map of Minoan Crete The Minoan civilization was an Aegean Bronze Age civilization that arose on the island of Crete and flourished from approximately the 27th century BC to the 15th century BC.[1] It was rediscovered at the beginning of the 20th century through the work of British archaeologist Arthur Evans. Will Durant referred to it as "the first link in the European chain The early inhabitants of Crete settled as early as 128,000 BC, during the Middle Paleolithic age.[3][4] It was not until 5000 BC that the first signs of advanced agriculture appeared, marking the beginning of civilization. Overview[edit] The term "Minoan" was coined by Arthur Evans after the mythic "king" Minos.[5] Minos was associated in Greek myth with the labyrinth, which Evans identified with the site at Knossos. Chronology and history[edit] Rather than associate absolute calendar dates for the Minoan period, archaeologists use two systems of relative chronology. History[edit] Geography[edit]
