good thing no one ever had to to repetitive tasks in ancient greece
You make some pots for the neighbors, think your work is done, then suddenly it's "Oh no Arkadios we dropped one of our urns and also we want to store extra grain for the cold season" and here I am making MORE FUCKING URNS.
What I wouldn't give to live in the old days before people had to learn a trade to get by!
That's why people built silos for their families, if they were wealthy enough, and for whole communities (to serve as a Bank) to store their grain
They mostly dug a leveled pit in the ground itself to keep everything cool, but more ornate silos were part of royalty or well managed cities
Urns were very ornate and the materials used to craft them very expensive and mostly used to store more valuable things, be it ashes, oils, Treasured items or whole bodies
Vases were more common, and made, as pottery, with very cheap materials
Well sonnie if you wanna live here you gotta work like everyone else and Urn your keep!
No, but people were much less alienated from their labour, so it likely didn't feel nearly as soul-crushing as it does today
Are you sure of that?
For me 9-5 sitting in an office is way better than 7-7 on the sun taking care of crops, inside a mine, or as some rich guy servant.
thatβs what the helots are for
