Hardback. Condition: New. A detailed archaeological study of life in Egypt's Eastern desert during the Roman period by a leading scholar Rome in Egypt's Eastern Desert is a two-volume set collecting Hélène Cuvigny's most important articles on Egypt's Eastern Desert during the Roman period. The excavations she directed uncovered a wealth of material, including tens of thousands of texts written on pottery fragments (ostraca). Some are administrative texts, but many more are correspondence, both official and private, written by and to the people (mostly but not all men) who lived and worked in these remote and harsh environments, supported by an elaborate network of defense, administration, and supply that tied the entire region together. The contents of Rome in Egypt's Eastern Desert have all been published earlier in peer-reviewed venues, but most appear here for the first time in English. All of the contributions have been checked or translated by the editor and brought up to date with respect to bibliography, and some have been significantly rewritten by the author, in order to take account of the enormous amount of new material discovered since the original publications. A full index makes this body of work far more accessible than it was before. This book assembles into one collection thirty years of detailed study of this material, conjuring in vivid detail the lived experience of those who inhabited these forts-often through their own expressive language-and the realia of desert geography, military life, sex, religion, quarry operations, and imperial administration in the Roman world.…

Dans la station ptolémaïque de Bi?r Samut (IIIe s. av. J.-C.), sur la route transdésertique d?Edfou à Bérénice, les mêmes nomades africains étaient appelés Trôgodytai en grec et Blhm.w en égyptien. Dans ce dernier mot, on reconnaît les Blemmyes de la littérature grecque et latine et des documents de l?Antiquité tardive. Pourtant, trois siècles plus tard, ces nomades seront simplement désignés sous le nom de Barbaroi dans les garnisons romaines du désert Oriental. De là est venue l?idée de publier ensemble les ostraca démotiques de Bi?r Samut mentionnant des Blemmyes et un dossier de bons pour des rations de blé distribuées à des Barbares, trouvé au praesidium de Xèron Pelagos et datant du règne de Gallien.Les seuls vestiges archéologiques clairement attribuables aux nomades sont des récipients ou des tessons d?Eastern Desert Ware, une céramique modelée et polie ornée d?incisions : les exemplaires trouvés à Bi?r Samut sont publiés dans le volume. Les trois chapitres consacrés aux documents inédits sont précédés d?une présentation de l?histoire du peuplement nomade du désert Oriental égyptien sur la longue durée depuis l?époque pharaonique, et d?une réflexion sur les noms que les Grecs et les Romains ont donnés tour à tour aux nomades qui occupaient le désert à l?est de l?Égypte et de la Nubie.…
