Revolution in the desert : a reassessment of the late bronze/early iron ages in northwestern Arabia and the southern levant
Abstract: The societal changes that occurred in north-western Arabia and the arid southern Levant between the mid-second and the beginning of the first millennia BCE were so profound that they can be characterized, borrowing Steven Rosen’s terminology, as a “desert revolution.” This article will...

Abstract: The societal changes that occurred in north-western Arabia and the arid southern
Levant between the mid-second and the beginning of the first millennia
BCE were so profound that they can be characterized, borrowing Steven Rosen’s
terminology, as a “desert revolution.” This article will review the archaeological
and epigraphic evidence of the Late Bronze and Early Iron Ages in the Hejaz,
Negev, north-eastern Sinai and southern Jordan. This period of ca. 500 years saw
major social, economic and political transformations in the local societies: the
development of non-state hierarchical societies; the growth of oasis urbanism
in north-western Arabia and industrial-based sites in Edom; the appearance
of an advanced metallurgy technology in the Arabah Valley; the construction
of the earliest hydraulic works in northern Arabia; the earliest evidence of
Bedouin agriculture in the Negev; the domestication of the dromedary and
its use as beast of burden; the emergence of long-distance trade networks; the
appearance and expansion of autochthonous industrial ceramic traditions;
and the materialization of a new religious world with local, tribal deities. |
