Gendering the Production and Consumption of Wine and Olive Oil in Ancient Greece

Elliott, Lisa Marie

Abstract Details

2006, Master of Arts, Miami University, History.
A thesis which examines the ways production and consumption of wine and olive oil in ancient Greece was gendered from the Early Bronze Age through the Hellenistic Period. The paper is divided into two large sections. The first examines the social and political institutions of the Early Bronze Age and Archaic Period which influence the production and consumption of wine and olive oil by men and women. The second section examines how those same institutions changed in the Classical and Hellenistic Periods. The thesis concludes, by the Classical Period both the production and the consumption of wine and olive oil became sexed. Production of wine and oil became controlled by men and the consumption of wine became regulated based directly on sex, but the consumption of olive oil remained unrestricted.
