Abstract

In the last decades, the publication of several survey projects on the Roman rural landscapes has changed our perception over these ancient communities. However, the increase of archaeological evidence available has not been accompanied with a similar growth in the current knowledge on the economic and social structures of these regions. This discussion is used as introduction for the presentation of an archaeological proposal for the analysis of this issue, based in the more anthropological tradition of Household Archaeology, and oriented to the study of domestic modes of production and consumptionperformed by Roman rural communities. The proposal is illustrated by its application in a comparative study of Late Roman (III-IV cent. AD) domestic economies of different Hispanoromanvillae.
