Encaustic painting is a painting medium using melted wax paints and one of the world's oldest form of paint. It was done by the artists of the Ancient Greece. Encaustic came from the Greek word "enkaustikos" which means "to burn in".

Artists of the Middle ages chose other painting mediums, like tempera, oil or fresco because it didn't require the task of building charcoal fires to melt the wax paint. These painting mediums are less of a hassle to use than the encaustic painting medium is.

The Byzantine Empire was the eastern part of the Greek Empire. The Greeks believed in many gods, and often depicted them on pots and even Effigy containers. The Greeks did not have very many colors available to them, so often times these vases or Effigy containers were painted in black and red.
