“Meeting the locals: peasant families in 13th century Lemnos.”

2012

AI-generated Abstract

The paper explores the social and economic dynamics of peasant families in 13th century Lemnos, highlighting the multiplicity of identities and roles that these families possessed within their communities. It delves into how political and economic shifts influenced household structures, identities, and social interactions, considering factors such as land ownership, family roles, and community obligations. By examining historical accounts and archaeological evidence, the study aims to provide insights into the complexity of rural life during this period.
