Social Dynamics between Egyptian, Greek and Mixed Communities: Center and Periphery in the Formation of the Sarapis Cult
Original language description
In this paper, the origin of the god Sarapis is understood as a cultural process that can be chronicled through iconography and inscriptions from about the 6th century BC to the onset of Ptolemaic dynasty. Archaeological evidence implies that the name and the contours of the god Sarapis were formed in close relation to social dynamics between Egyptian population and Greek immigrants. The topic of the formation of the cult of Sarapis can be elucidated with the help of the network theory whose terminologyand analytical apparatus are developed for the study of social dynamics. In this case, one of the edges of the "Greek civilization" network will be investigated. In the perspective of the network theory, these edges are called "middle grounds". Any network is maintained by the data flow between its nodes. In social context, data traffic between the nodes is determined by migration. However, middle grounds are not full-fledged nodes.
