A social archaeology of households in Neolithic Greece :
Souvatzi, Stella G., 1966-
A social archaeology of households in Neolithic Greece : an anthropological approach / Stella G. Souvatzi. - New York : Cambridge University Press, 2015, c2008. - 309 p. : ill. ; 26cm.
"The study of households and everyday life is increasingly recognised as fundamental in social archaeological analysis. This volume is the first to address the household as a process and as a conceptual and analytical means through which we can interpret social organisation from the bottom up. In detailed case studies from Neolithic Greece, Stella G. Souvatzi examines how the household is defined socially, culturally, and historically: household and community, variability, production and reproduction, individual and collective agency, identity, change, complexity, and integration. Her study is enriched by an in-depth discussion of the framework for the household in the social sciences and the synthesis of many anthropological, historical, and sociological examples. It reverses the view of the household as passive, ahistorical, and stable, showing it instead to be active, dynamic, and continually shifting."--Provided by the publisher.
