Economic structure Location Economic mechanism Archaeological correlates Imperial Economy Empirewide and beyond frontiers Taxation, imperial exploitation
- f land, labor,
resources, redistribution, largesse, and salary commitments Monetization focused
- n military needs, tax
gathering (Egyptian tax grain arrangements, etc.); long range movement
- f many commodities
to frontier provinces or Rome, military bias in distribution patterns Extraprovincial Economies Empirewide and beyond frontiers Free-market economy, response to
- pportunities
- f imperial supply, gift
exchange Interprovincial movement
- f goods to local
markets, consumption of imported goods on civilian sites Provincial Economies Within provincial borders, often localized around major towns Free-market economy, response to taxation, monetization Local market distributions
- f locally produced
goods, spread of monetization to smaller market centers
