This session aims to focus on long-term economic structures which are closely related to the social structure and organization of past societies. Exploitation of natural resources, together with agricultural and craft production, are the most important aspects for the gradual growth of social complexity. Extended focus on subsistence strategies involving beside actual food production also redistribution, exchange, and specialisation are among the most intriguing themes in archaeology. The real challenge, however, is to explore and understand the ways how resources were exploited and managed and what social, political and cultural institutions organized and structured them. Unfortunately, such questions are usually dealt with only in scope of individual time periods or geographic regions. In this session we seek to broaden the investigation of economic aspects of societies by bridging research topics from different places of origin. Although seemingly different, they in fact share many fundamental issues showing strong underlying continuities despite their various cultural identities. The aim of this session is to find inspiration for further development of theories concerning past exploitation of environment, natural resources and production and distribution processes from Iron Age to Early Medieval period. We would like to discuss economic themes which transcend time and space and bring together different research experiences.
