Society of Biblical Literature & Centro de Estudios de Historia del Antiguo Oriente, 2008. — 244 p. — (Ancient Near East Monographs 2).This study investigates the forms of exchange of goods in the second half of the XVIIIth Egyptian Dynasty (Thutmose III to Amenhotep IV/Akhenaten) (15th-14th centuries BCE) between Egypt and Western Asia, including Hatti, Mittanni, Babylon, Assyria, Alashiya and Canaan. Its main aims are: to determine the role of the exchange of goods in the reorganization of the Egyptian state from Thutmose III on; to discern the innovations implemented in the exchanges between Egypt and the northern states during the reigns of Amenhotep III and Amenhotep IV; to interpret the messages sent by the great kings with regard to the exchange of goods within the context of the ideology of each region; to determine the extent of economical, political, social and ideological relations within the framework of the circulation of goods.
