Redistribution in Aegean palatial societies. Introduction: Why redistribution?

Michael L. Galaty, Dimitri Nakassis & William A. Parkinson American Journal of Archaeology115.2 (2011): 175-176.

Περίληψη (στα αγγλικά)

This collection of papers explores the role of redistribution in Minoan and Mycenaean economies. The term ‘redistribution’ was coined to describe a particular mode of economic exchange employed in ancient economies, particularly Near Eastern temple economies, and later applied to the Aegean. Recently, the redistributive model has been revised substantially, but these revisions largely have been ignored by Aegean prehistorians. We hope that this Forum will contribute to the ongoing debate about the nature and extent of control exercised by Aegean palatial authorities and to the larger study of ancient economic exchange in archaeology and anthropology. The articles in this Forum address the concept of redistribution – as a mode of transition and as a social institution – in the Aegean. They were presented originally at the 110th Annual meeting of the Archaeological Institute of America (Philadelphia, 2009) in a colloquium titled ‘Redistribution in Aegean Palatial Societies’.
