These new inter-clan raids, ranging from minor skirmishes to standard warfare, stimulated the development of a [[w:Tribute|tributary system]] in Kzmr, in which more vulnerable septs or clans paid levies, usually in the form of dairy, livestock, or forageables, to their more militarily adept counterparts in exchange for a guarantee of protection by the [[w:Suzerainty|suzerain]]. In some cases, suzerains could themselves be tributaries of other septs or clans. This system allowed some suzerains to live a sedentary lifestyle off of these levies, prompting the construction of [[w:Manor house|manor houses]] which constitute the earliest permanent examples of [[Kzmr architecture]]. After the decline of the tributary system, the manor house of [[Srn]] and its surrounding villas were repurposed as a phylaciopolis – a city consisting of storehouses, archives, and residences for their workers.
