The Ancient Greeks observed the bees and their architectural techniques which concerned the protection of the hive. Noticing the strange substance that bees placed at the entrance of their hive to protect it from enemies, they named it propolis – (Pro – Polis, before the entrance of the city in the greek language) - bestowing on it its defensive quality.
