阿马尔那时代埃及在叙巴的统治

Egypt's Domination on Syro-Palestine in Amarna Period

在阿马尔那时代,埃及的叙巴属国保持着半独立半依附的地位。埃及采取了迫使属国宣誓效忠和扣留属国人质的政策对叙巴属国进行约束,创建了派驻官员的行政监督体系。被纳入帝国轨道的叙巴属国,对埃及负有政治、经济、军事义务。埃及在叙巴的统治以间接统治为特征,具有能降低统治成本的优点和不稳定性的先天缺陷。

In Amarna period,Egyptian vassals in Syro-Palestine were semi-independent and semi-adherent. Egypt forced them to swear their allegiance and deliver their children as hostage to Egypt, and established a system of administration and supervision. The vassals in Syro-Palestine being brought into the Egyptian empire orbit, must be responsible for political,economic and military obligations. Egyptian domination on Syro-Palestine were characterized by indirect rule, which could reduce the Egyptian administrative and managing cost and had a natural shortcomings of instability.
