Apples have been known since prehistoric times when there were only wild sour apples. The apple originated originally from Eastern Europe and Southwest Asia, and spread to the more temperate regions. The Romans worshiped apples and were the first to cultivate them. Since the 1st century AD, they cultivated at least 12 different varieties throughout the Roman Empire. The cultivated apple tree is mentioned by Theophrastus in the 3rd century. B.C.
