I too am a fan of fall of civilisations!

What does "compensated well" mean in this context though? There was no currency with which to pay. I thought compensation was mostly food, beer, and lodging.

In an age of no currency existing, what other pay would have been good compensation in your mind?

[-] fine_sandy_bottom@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 2 months ago

Land or livestock.

Good point there, I forgot livestock was a thing.
