    East-West Orientation of Historical Empires and Modern States Peter Turchin Jonathan M. Adams Th omas D. Hall introduction n a chapter entitled “Spacious Skies and Tilted Axes” Jared Diamond (1997) Iargues that crops and domestic animals are spread more easily along lines of latitude (along an East-West axis) rather than along lines of longitude (along a North-South axis). Diamond suggests that East-West spread is easier because similar climates and soil types tend to be arranged in east-west oriented bands. Th is geographic pattern is fundamental to natural vegetation types and wild animal distributions, and is best illustrated by a map of the global distribution of biomes (Figure 1). A biome is a major type of ecological community such as the grassland, desert, or temperate seasonal forest (Ricklefs 2001). Although Diamond focused primarily on the spread of crop cultivars and domesticated animals, the same principle should infl uence the military/politi- cal, demographic, and cultural dynamics of societies. An obvious example which seems to fi t this pattern is the Mongol empire under Chinggis Khan and his Peter Turchin Jonathan M.

  • The Amarna South Tombs Cemetery
    The Amarna South Tombs Cemetery: Biocultural Dynamics of a Disembedded Capital City in New Kingdom Egypt by William Charles Schaffer A Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy Approved November 2018 by the Graduate Supervisory Committee: Jane E. Buikstra, Chair Christopher M. Stojanowski Michael E. Smith Jerome C. Rose ARIZONA STATE UNIVERSITY December 2018 ABSTRACT The Egyptian New Kingdom city of Akhetaten (modern: Tell el-Amarna, el- Amarna, or simply Amarna) provides a unique opportunity to study ancient biocultural dynamics. It was a disembedded capital removed from the major power bases of Memphis and Thebes that was built, occupied, and abandoned within approximately 20 years (c. 1352–1336 BCE). This dissertation used the recently excavated Amarna South Tombs cemetery to test competing models for the development of disembedded capitals, such as the geographic origin of its migrants and its demographic structure in comparison to contrastive models for the establishment of settlements. The degree to which biological relatedness organized the South Tombs cemetery was also explored. The results suggest that the Nile Valley into the New Kingdom (1539–1186 BCE) was very diverse in dental cervical phenotype and thus highly mobile in respects to gene flow, failing to reject that the Amarna city was populated by individuals and families throughout the Nile Valley. In comparison, the Amarna South Tombs cemetery contained the least amount of dental phenotypic diversity, supporting a founder effect due to migration from larger, more diverse gene pools to the city or the very fact that the city and sample only reflect a 20- year interval with little time to accumulate phenotypic variation.

  • Egyptians, Nubians, Assyrians Chapter 4 Nomadic Rulers Invade Egypt
    Egyptians, Nubians, Assyrians Chapter 4 Nomadic Rulers Invade Egypt ● After the Middle Kingdom of Egypt declined, Egypt was attacked by invaders. ○ Caused by a succession of weak pharaohs and struggles amongst rival nobles. ○ These Asiatic invaders were called HYKSOS. ○ They ruled Egypt from 1640 BC to 1570 BC. ● The Israelites migration to Egypt. ○ The Bible tells of this story in the Old Testament. ○ Abraham crossed the Euphrates River into Canaan and settled there. ○ The Hyksos encouraged the Israelites to settle there because they were racially similar. Egyptians Regain Control ● Around 1600 BC a series of warlike rulers began to restore Egypt’s power. ○ Queen Ahhotep took over when her husband was killed in war. ○ Pharaoh Kamose won a great victory over the Hyksos. ○ The Hyksos were driven completely out of Egypt across the Sinai Peninsula. ○ Bible says Israelites remained and were enslaved. ○ Would not leave until the time of the Great Exodus between 1500 and 1200 BC. The New Kingdom of Egypt ● Pharaohs wanted to strengthen Egypt by building an empire. ● Queen Hatshepsut was a unique ruler ○ Her stepson was too young to rule so she ruled in his place. ○ Encouraged trade instead of war - sent ships to present-day Somalia (called Punt then) to trade for spices, animals, incense, and other goods. ● Thutmose III (Hatshepsut’s stepson) was much more warlike. ○ It is believed that he murdered Hatshepsut to gain power. ○ He led victorious invasions of Canaan and Syria, also Nubia to the south. ○ Egypt was now a mighty empire. More power than they ever had or ever would have in the future.
