by Sabrina Greece couldn't grow enough wheat to feed everyone so traders bought wheat from around the Black Sea, Sicily, southern Italy, and southern France. They traded with wine, olive oil, pottery, and vases.  Since ancient times Greek have relied on cereal, olive oil, and grapes. They also had herds, vegetables, and oil-producing plants. When Greek people had more room they began to raise cow instead of sheep so they did less trading and fishing. Then after the Dark Ages, the population increased again and they started raising sheep again and began trading, fishing, and fighting again.
