Olives were one of the staples of Roman life just as they were/are of all the Mediterranean countries. The Romans, not only used them for food, but their oil was one of ancient Rome's major industries. Olive oil was used for cooking, lamp fuel, bathing, as a lubricating agent in machinery and in medicines. It was also used as an ingredient in many perfumed oils and Skin Care products.
