Athens grew wheat, barley, and olives on the surrounding plains for trade. These agricultural products were essential for sustaining the population and were also exported to other regions. Additionally, the cultivation of olives led to the production of olive oil, a highly valued commodity in ancient trade. This agricultural surplus supported Athens' economy and its role as a prominent trade hub in the Mediterranean.

Did the plain Indians eat corn?

The true Plains tribes were nomadic buffalo hunters who grew no crops, so they only had access to maize (Indian corn) if they could trade with the farming tribes on the margins of the Plains. The Mandan, Hidatsa, Arikara and Pawnee grew many varieties of maize and often grew far more than they needed, so they were happy to trade the excess for buffalo hides, dried meat and other goods.So yes - the Plains tribes did eat a small amount of maize, but most of their diet (well over 90%) was meat from hunted animals. Many strongly conservative Plains tribes like the Cheyenne and Lakota would consider maize to be "not real food" and would not touch it.
