Acerca de esta escucha

This book delves into the Amarna letters, a significant collection of diplomatic communications inscribed on clay tablets during the New Kingdom of ancient Egypt, specifically in the mid-14th century BC. These letters, discovered at el-Amarna—once known as Akhetaten and established by Pharaoh Akhenaten—offer invaluable insights into the interactions between Egyptian officials and their counterparts in Canaan and Amurru. Uniquely, they are composed not in Egyptian hieroglyphs but in cuneiform script, primarily Akkadian, which reflects a blend of local linguistic influences known as Canaanite-Akkadian. The archive comprises 382 tablets and fragments, with 350 being letters and the remainder consisting of literary or educational texts. Notably, one letter stands out for its length and is written in a late Hurrian dialect. The majority of these artifacts were first unearthed around 1887 by locals who clandestinely excavated them from the ruins before entering the antiquities market. Subsequent archaeological efforts revealed more tablets, with Flinders Petrie playing a crucial role in recovering additional fragments. The significance of these letters extends beyond mere historical documentation; they are pivotal for understanding biblical contexts and Semitic linguistics.
