The hamburger, a piece of minced meat served between two pieces of bread, may be one of the oldest elaborated foods of mankind, and is described in the book De re coquinaria (On the subject of cooking), an authentic Roman cookbook compiled by the gourmet Marco Gavio Apicio during the reign of the emperors Augustus and Tiberius (1st century). This easy to prepare, transport and consume food is likely to have been brought to the lands of Germania by Roman legionaries.
