Ancient Rome
Wreaths were also part of clothing in Rome. Laurel wreaths were used by military and public officials in parades. Wreaths made out of olive leaves were worn by consuls and senators. During a period of the ancient Roman civilisation, it was a custom for soldiers rescued from a siege to present a wreath made of grass to the commander of the rescuing force.
