The Early Ottoman Peloponnese by Georgios C. Liakopoulos
Drawing on a mid-fifteenth-century Ottoman census register (c. 1460–1463), this study reconstructs the Peloponnese in the decades after conquest, detailing administration, taxation, landholding, and settlement patterns. It analyzes demographics, agricultural production, urban–rural networks, and the timar system, emphasizing both continuity from the late Byzantine era and shifts under new rule. An annotated edition of the defter illuminates the region’s ethnic and religious mosaic, mobility, and mechanisms of imperial integration, yielding a granular social and economic portrait of a province in transition.
