Ancient Greece
The wreath is associated with Greek attire and celebrations since ancient times, continuing a tradition to the modern day Olympic ceremonies. Ancient coinage minted by early Greek city-states often depicted a goddess or other figure with a wreath. For example, on certain early coins of ancient Kydonia, Crete, the goddess Britomartis was struck wearing a wreath of grapevines.
