The history of bread making stretches back thousands of years and is deeply intertwined with the development of human civilization. The earliest forms of bread were likely simple flatbreads made from crushed grains and water, baked on hot stones by ancient peoples as far back as 10,000 BCE. With the rise of agriculture in Mesopotamia and Egypt, bread became a staple food, and the discovery of natural fermentation led to the creation of leavened bread, which was lighter and more flavorful. Ancient Egyptians are credited with refining these techniques, using sourdough starters and building the first ovens. Over centuries, bread evolved alongside culture and technology—Romans industrialized baking with public bakeries, medieval Europe saw the emergence of local mills and communal ovens, and the Industrial Revolution introduced mechanical mixers and commercial yeast, making bread widely accessible. Today, bread making remains both a global industry and a cherished artisanal craft, combining ancient traditions with modern innovation while continuing to symbolize nourishment and community across cultures.
