The jars and their contents were imported to Egypt by maritime trade\nexpeditions conducted at the behest of the Egyptian state. This study analyses\na selection of these ceramic samples using ICP-AES and -MS for comparison with\npublished data from the region of Byblos. The results not only confirmed the\nunderlying petrography, but together with new evidence from Lebanon suggests\nthe vessels likely belonged to specialised workshop production in the Byblos\nenvirons and were made specifically for export to Egypt. The finding sheds new\nlight on the relationship between the Egyptian state and the polity of Byblos\nin the Early Bronze Age, indicating the presence of standardised local\nproduction and commodity procurement mechanisms tailored to the needs of a\nlarge trade entity. This relationship in turn delivered significant prestige\nand status to local elites in an environment of competitive local peer-polity\ninteractions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kamal Badreshany, Karin Sowada, Mary Ownby, Mathilde Jean, Michel De Vreeze, Alice McClymont, Graham Philip (2022) The characterisation of ceramic production from the central Levant and Egyptian trade in the Pyramid Age.
