Poverty and inequality are widely spread across the globe today. This volume explores to what extent they already shaped early complex societies and how they might encourage social modelling beyond the elite. The contributions include quantitative and qualitative case-studies from ancient Egypt, Sudan, Mesopotamia, Mesoamerica, China and Greece and an anthropological response from present day Africa. Contextual discussion is key for understanding how inequality played out in specific historical and social settings, cautioning against unifying narratives. The evidence for poverty is ambivalent. Different from today, early states seem to have seen poverty not as a problem that required solving, unless it affected political stability.

The Kakucs-Turján archaeological site was investigated by a Polish-Hungarian-German research team of archaeologists and various specialists. This volume explores the plant economy of Early and Middle Bronze Age Kakucs-Turján based on systematically sampled macrobotanical remains. The study provides a comprehensive consideration of the plant-related activities and (post-)depositional processes that have contributed to the formation of the charred deposits, and it considers the character of the plant-food economy (cultivation, processing, storage, etc.) that was practiced by the inhabitants. The results emphasise the importance of a detailed consideration of site-formation processes in macrobotanical studies of stratified settlements, and further illustrate the unique character of the crop spectrum of this particular Vatya community.
