Greek Grime

Average rating
4 out of 5
Based on 4 Ratings and 2 Reviews

Book Description
Those ancient Greeks tried hard to keep clean--after scraping off the grime, they spread on the grease! At the ancient Olympic games athletes wore nothing but olive oil. And the ladies sloshed on perfumed oils galore. Explore the grisly details of everyday life, from putrid plagues to sizzling sacrifices, and discover if there was a whiff of truth in those meaty myths of gods and monsters.
