The appearance of social inequalities: Cases of Neolithic and Chalcolithic societies

Description

By using a new methodological approach, which is based on the reconstruction of social roles of households by comparing architecture and inventories, the origin of social inequality is detected in a Neolithic village. In contrast the identification of manifold social identities in a Chalcolithic mega-site (including social inequalities) describes other forms of social control. | L’origine della disuguaglianza può essere riconosciuta in un villaggio neolitico utilizzando un nuovo approccio metodologico, che consente di identificare ruoli sociali all’interno delle unità familiari, mettendo in relazione architetture e materiali archeologici. Diversamente, in un mega-sito calcolitico, vengono distinte varie identità (e disuguaglianze) sociali, che descrivono forme differenti di controllo sociale.
