Storage in Ancient Complex Societies: Administration, Organization, and Control

Storage in Ancient Complex Societies: Administration, Organization, and Control edited by Linda R. Manzanilla, Mitchell Rothman
English | May 18, 2016 | ISBN: 1629583022 | EPUB | 350 pages | 16.9 MB

The ability to accumulate and store large amounts of goods is a key feature of complex societies in ancient times. Storage strategies reflect the broader economic and political organization of a society and changes in the development of control mechanisms in both administrative and non-administrative―often kinship based―sectors. This is the first volume to examine storage practices in ancient complex societies from a comparative perspective.

This volume includes 14 original papers by leading archaeologists from four continents which compare storage systems in three key regions with lengthy traditions of complexity: the ancient Near East, Mesoamerica, and Andes. Storage in Ancient Complex Societies demonstrates the importance of understanding storage for the study of cultural evolution.
