The Ancient Egyptians taught the Ancient Greeks bread making, including pita bread and other flat breads. They taught these breads many years later to the Ancient Romans who used the Greek flat bread as a basis for the dish called pizza.
The Ancient Greeks also used flat breads as an alternative to plates. They would place all their dishes on the pita bread and eat their meal this way. This resembled a pizza without the tomato and cheese base.
In addition, the Ancient Greeks had flat bread called “plakous” or “plakountos”, which was flavoured with toppings like herbs, onion, and garlic. This is believed to be the earliest form of pizza.
