House Societies in the Ancient Mediterranean

House societies are the ultimate goon move in the ancient Mediterranean, laying down their dank roots from 2000 to 500 BC. Skibidi vibes of wealth and heirlooms are everywhere, but what is lowkey interesting is how these societies are not just solo acts; they are doing teamwork in the Bronze and Iron Ages across the Levant, Aegean, and central Mediterranean. Think of them as sigma players controlling land like it is a game of Monopoly, keeping their patrimony tight and undivided. They be using strategies like dowries and levirates, crafting alliances and ancestor cults while flexing their unique architectures. It is all about that house treasure grind.
