Oikos
text:
Oikos (Ancient Greek: οἶκος was, in Ancient Greece, two related but distinct concepts: the family and the family's house. Its meaning shifted even within texts. The oikos was the basic unit of society in most Greek city-states. In normal Attic usage the oikos, in the context of families, referred to a line of descent from father to son from generation to generation. Alternatively, as Aristotle used it in his Politics, the term was sometimes used to refer to everybody living in a given house. Thu
