Summary

This article deals with different modes of monastic economic agency: the mobilisation of internal means and forces of production to supply its inhabitants with staple food, and the activation of spiritual capital to supply inhabitants and visitors with spiritual goods, such as the forgiveness of sins. These practices are exemplified by recent findings of an ongoing project at Deir Anba Hadra. After an overview of the monastery and its role in the first cataract region, two sections deal with the two kinds of economy attested here. One section focuses on archaeological evidence for food production, such as mills and ovens, in the workshop area of the monastery. The role of food production intra muros for mere subsistence versus a local market is discussed here. Another section is dedicated to secondary inscriptions left on the walls of the monastery by inhabitants and visitors and their potential role in the monastic economy.
