Crossing Borders, Reaching Limits. Boundaries in the Late Bronze Age Levant

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

The process of state formation and the concept of a territorial state are closely intertwined elements that significantly influence our discussion of political institutions and their functioning in the ancient Near East. By the middle of the second millennium BCE, a system of political structures was already fully developed in the region under discussion, and the various political entities interacted with each other either through trade and diplomatic relations or military conflicts (or both). However, this system was far from rudimentary, static, or uniformly stratified, displaying fluidity across temporal and geographical contexts.This paper aims to identify and explore the principles of the political system as it was practiced in the Levant during the Late Bronze Age (c. 16th-12th centuries BCE), a time when the city-states of the region were experiencing intense political, economic, and cultural expansion from neighboring &quot;empires&quot;. Central to our investigation is the question of political borders and their permeability, as they played a crucial role in shaping the character of individual political centers. To achieve this, we will analyze written sources to glean insights into the very notion of borders, limits, and boundaries prevailing in the region. By gaining an enhanced understanding these aspects, we can unlock a deeper understanding of the intricate interplay between political, economic, and cultural forces in shaping the developmental trajectory of the ancient Near East during the Late Bronze Age.
