Acephalous

[edit]

This is connected with societies regarded as "stateless societies" with no formal governmental institutions. Decisions are reached through consensus or general assembly. In pre colonial Nigeria, the Igbos were a typical example. They were also regarded egalitarian or republican(somehow) IngeniousProphet (talk) 16:30, 17 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Minoan Crete Was Not Stateless

[edit]

This article states that Minoan Crete was a stateless and rankless society, but this is clearly false. Minoan Society was centred around palaces that functioned as state centres for redistribution. Minoan art also showed clear stratification of classes. I can't speak for Indus and the Neolithic European civilisations also mentioned in the citation, but I am tempted to remove the whole sentence altogether for being of dubious scholarly quality.

[edit]

Hello, I put proposals for deletion for three articles that link to this article (permanent links to recent edits of the pages in case they are in fact deleted)

All three are very similar and appear to have been created by the same editor, using the same (uncited and unlinked) source. I wanted to leave a record of them here as it seems that, if citations can be found, they could perhaps be a section within this article. Jan kala kabinet (talk) 14:30, 20 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
