Description
Trade in antiquity has been regarded as a dynamic concept, just as it is in today's world. That being said, defining the structure of long-distance trade in the Archaic period is highly problematic. However, a harbour settlement, Naukratis, has the potential to reveal the structure, organisation and interregional significance of trade activities and provide insight into their structure in the Eastern Mediterranean in the Archaic Period. The political and demographic structure of the city, which assumed the role of emporium from the Early Archaic Period onwards, was among the factors that shaped the trade organisation. Apart from the archaeological evidence, ancient sources also indicate that the Eastern Hellens played a leading role in trade, supported by the Egyptian Ruler Amasis. The information backed by literary and archaeological evidence demonstrates that social, political, and cultural factors determined the organisation of trade activities at Naukratis. This paper attempts to investigate the role of Naukratis within the Eastern Mediterranean trade world in the Archaic Period through literary and archaeological evidence.
