We consider that the pastoral and caravanning practices of the Sinai populations may have been relevant to the establishment of early circulation routes in the region and the development of inter-regional interactions. Subsequently, the Egyptians may have used these same routes, and perhaps their agents, to control the supply of certain sumptuary goods as part of the process of change asso-ciated with the emergence of the State. In order to address this topic, and based on an interno-dal approach, we will identify the archaeological evidence for the traffic of goods in the Sinai and try to establish the possible corridors through which these goods would have circulated. Some considerations on the implications of caravanserai for the development of inter-regional interactions will also be proposed. En este trabajo analizaremos el rol de los pastores móviles en la extracción y circulación de bienes en la península del Sinaí, durante los períodos Predinástico y Dinástico Temprano, en el marco general de las relaciones entre el valle del Nilo y el Levante meridional. Consideramos que las prácticas pastoriles y de caravaneo de las poblaciones del Sinaí pudieron ser de relevancia para el establecimiento de las primeras rutas de circulación en la región y el desarrollo de las inte-racciones interregionales. Posteriormente, los egipcios podrían haberse valido de esas mismas rutas, y quizás de sus agentes, para controlar el aprovisionamiento de ciertos bienes suntuarios, en el marco del proceso de cambio asociado al surgimiento del Estado. Para abordar este tópico, y a partir de un enfoque internodal, se identificarán las evidencias arqueológicas de tráfico de bienes en el Sinaí y se intentará establecer los posibles corredores por los que circularían tales bienes. Se propondrán también algunas consideraciones sobre las implicancias del caravaneo en el desarrollo de las interacciones interregionales. application/pdf https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/rihao/article/view/16258 10.34096/rihao.n25.16258 spa Instituto de Historia Antigua Oriental, Facultad de Filosofía y Letras, UBA https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/rihao/article/view/16258/13881 Derechos de autor 2024 Ezequiel Cismondi Revista del Instituto de Historia Antigua Oriental 'Dr. Abraham Rosenvasser'; Núm. 25 (2024) 2683-9660 0325-1209 Sinai pastoralism caravans exchanges Sinaí pastoralismo caravaneo intercambios Pastoralism and Circulation of Goods in the Sinai Peninsula during the Predynastic and Early Dynastic Periods Pastoralismo y circulación de bienes en la península del Sinaí durante el Predinástico y el Dinástico Temprano info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion https://repositoriouba.sisbi.uba.ar/gsdl/cgi-bin/library.cgi?a=d&c=rihao&d=16258_oai
