The prehistoric diet consisted mainly of wild meats and fish obtained through hunting.

Foraged foods made up the rest of the diet, including nuts, seeds, wild vegetables, and fruits gathered from the surrounding environment.

Prehistoric humans relied entirely on foraging and hunting, before the advent of agriculture and animal domestication.

For breakfast, Greeks might eat fruit with bread dipped in wine. Lunch might be bread and cheese.

Romans ate three meals: breakfast (ientaculum) at sunrise, a small lunch (prandium) around 11 AM, and the main meal (cena) in the afternoon.

Everyday food for the poor consisted of cabbage, beans, eggs, oats, and brown bread (with occasional cheese, bacon, or poultry). All classes commonly drank ale or beer.

Low-fat and nonfat foods are increasingly popular as people focus on health. Cuisine appeals to all senses using cheese, spices, and flavorings.

Early humans wore clothing made from animal skins and furs to stay warm and protect themselves from the elements.

In most of ancient Greece, a house was built around an open-air courtyard. Houses were built of stone, wood, and clay bricks.

Lower classes lived in apartment complexes called Insulae, while rich Romans lived in large, luxurious houses called Domus.

There was a wide variety of homes, ranging from castles and manor houses to monasteries, mud huts, and apartments over shops. Castles were huge and made of stone.

The manufacturing of new building materials, the invention of new construction methods, and the growth of cities changed the design of houses during modern times.

Both men and women wore rectangular pieces of fabric (like the chiton) draped and pinned around the body. Clothing was typically made of wool or linen.

Men wore tunics with a toga draped over them for formal occasions. Women wore a tunic (stola) and a draped shawl (palla). Wool was most common, while wealthy Romans wore silk and linen.

Most people in the Middle Ages wore woolen clothing, with undergarments made of linen. Brighter colors, better materials, and a longer jacket length were usually signs of greater wealth.

People in the modern age not only wear clothes for protection, but it also signifies status and preferences. They wear different types of clothing made of different materials like cotton, silk, linen, or wool.

Early men chose locations that could be defended against predators and rivals and that were shielded from inclement weather.
