This international conference focused on research into the household, which has been mainly studied as the core of the monarch's court, with an emphasis on identifying individuals who were close to the monarch/sovereign on a daily basis. At the same time, the household has been defined by historians as a subsystem of the court. In conjunction with these conclusions, the challenge remains to understand the household in an interdisciplinary context so as to create space for comparing the results of historical scholarship, and particularly archaeological findings. In archaeology, we find the theme of the household immanently present in the investigations of human dwellings and activities. At the same time, the theme offers comparisons with several other disciplines and fields as the household not only formed a foundational space for its members, individuals, and families, but also provided a space for a range of activities and skills that primarily covered basic human needs. On the other hand, it shaped the future of the household's members, especially in terms of social or gender roles.
