The history of olive oil can be traced back to thousands of years ago when it was being used by people living around the Mediterranean (Greeks, Phoenicians and Romans).
They used olive oil not just for consumption, but also for perfume, soap, anointments and topical use. But it was in Ancient Greece that olive oil achieved the respected status that it still enjoys today—a bio-organic product that was famously called Liquid Gold. It was so highly valued that even the crown for the Olympic Games was made out as to represent the olive branch.
