Abstract: The ultimate goal is to trace changes in human welfare over time and across regions. Although there have been substantial advances in the study of ancient Greek economies, and although much of the new work on Greece is focused on the core areas of growth, demography, distribution, and welfare, there is, no readily accessible summary of the most recent developments in archaic and classical Hellenic economic history. This article sketches a few preliminary results of an emerging area of scholarship that will, revolutionize how classicists and social scientists think about the ancient Greek economic world.
