A brick, formed in a mold and dried in the sun or baked in a kiln by the early Greeks and Romans; much larger and much thinner than modern bricks; each brick was stamped with the name of the maker and the year in which it was made. Fancy bricks were made in molds of all shapes and sizes to imitate the designs produced with a chisel in stone or marble structures, but ordinary bricks usually were rectangular, square, or triangular in shape. (Harris, 1977)
