Evidence for Viniculture from the Ottoman Tax Registers: 15th to 17th century

Abstract

This paper presents qualitative and quantitative data from Ottoman registers on viniculture and wine production in Greek regions from the fifteenth to the seventeenth centuries. Several methodogical tools that will enable researchers to use this quantitative data more productively are also proposed, in the hope of encouraging fuller documentation of viniculture in Greek lands during the Ottoman period. Examples are taken also from different types of Ottoman registers from various Greek regions, such as Crete, the Cyclades, the Peloponnesus, Mount Athos, Euboea, and Macedonia. Based on this initial research, the following observations can be made. Viniculture in Greek lands extended over a wide geographical area and was therefore a basic source of the tax revenues. Preference for viniculture was directly linked to the possibilities afforded commercial exploitation wine. As a rule villages in Greek lands did not specialise in viniculture, at least during the first Ottoman centuries, 15th-17th. The vine was a supplementary crop
