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 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.

Resumen: Los cambios sociales que se produjeron en el noroeste de Arabia y en el sur del Levante árido entre mediados del segundo y principios del primer milenio a.n.e. fueron tan profundos que pueden caracterizarse, tomando prestada la terminología de Steven Rosen, como una “revolución en el desierto”. Este artículo explorará las evidencias arqueológicas y epigráficas de la Edad del Bronce Tardío y de la Edad del Hierro Temprano en el Hejaz, el Negev, el noreste del Sinaí y el sur de Jordania. Este período de ca. 500 años vio grandes transformaciones sociales, económicas y políticas en las sociedades locales: el desarrollo de sociedades jerárquicas no estatales; la emergencia del urbanismo de oasis en el noroeste de Arabia y de sitios industriales en Edom; la aparición de una tecnología metalúrgica de avanzada en el Valle de Arabá; la construcción de las primeras obras hidráulicas en el norte de Arabia; las evidencias más antiguas de agricultura beduina en el Negev; la domesticación del dromedario y su utilización como animal de carga; la aparición de redes de comercio de larga distancia; la aparición y expansión de tradiciones de cerámica industrial autóctona; y la materialización de un nuevo mundo religioso con deidades tribales locales. 2020-11-12T13:39:36Z 2020-11-12T13:39:36Z 2020 Artículo Tebes, J.

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. |
