The study of households and everyday life is increasingly
recognized as fundamental in social archaeological analysis. This
volume addresses the household as a process and as a conceptual and
analytical means through which we can interpret social organization
from the bottom up. Using detailed case studies from Neolithic
Greece, Stella Souvatzi examines how the household is defined
socially, culturally and historically; she discusses 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.
