This Element focuses on the production stage of the Bronze Age economy, examining the surplus products and control mechanisms of palatial states. It synthesizes previous work and recent archaeological data to reconstruct the internal economy and commodity production under Minoan and Mycenaean palatial states' purview.
This Element does not discuss every aspect of the economy. Rather, it focuses on the first stage of an economic cycle - that of production. Two of the major guiding questions are: What products were the Bronze Age palatial states concerned with producing in surplus? And how did the palatial states control the production of these essential commodities? To answer these questions, the Element synthesizes previous work while interspersing its own conclusions on certain sub-topics, especially in light of recent archaeological data that help to fill out a picture incomplete based on textual evidence alone. With these goals in mind, this Element brings together both textual and archaeological data to reconstruct the internal economy and the production of commodities under the purview of Minoan and Mycenaean palatial states.
