Where did rome get its honey from?

The Romans got honey from beehives like we do nowadays, except for the fact that ancient beehives were different. They were cylinders made of clay tiles and some were made of mud, straw and dung. One end of the beehive was smoked to drive the bees out for the harvest, which was done by pressing the beeswax to squeeze out the honey. This meant that they provided more beeswax and much less honey than modern beehives.
