The workings of estates and the activities of their proprietors have dominated late Roman economic history. While a great deal is known about the economic activities and strategies employed by proprietors, the approach taken by individual leaseholders of estate lands remains largely unexamined. By analyzing the activities of non-elite tenants described in Apion estate accounts, in particular P. Oxy. LV 3804 (566 CE), this article seeks to offer new perspectives on the ways that non-elites managed economic risk and uncertainty, and the role that partnerships, collectives, and investment in social capital played in the lives of estate tenants
