Des deux côtés de la Méditerranée, des peuples ont laissé des signes gravés. Traces de leur culture ou préécriture ? Les grandes civilisations de la Mésopotamie et de l'Égypte possèdent les cunéiformes et les hiéroglyphes, systèmes très complexes qui réservent la connaissance de l'écriture à une élite de scribes et de prêtres. Mais, entre 1800 et 1000 avant J.-C., apparaissent au Proche-Orient quelques systèmes alphabétiques qui permettront de communiquer plus facilement. D'autres tentatives de simplification avaient déjà existé. Les Élamites avaient inventé un syllabaire de signes linéaires à partir de signes pictographiques. Comment alors expliquer que l'écriture syllabique cunéiforme, si complexe, se soit imposée et maintenue si longtemps dans la région alors que les Ougaritains avaient inventé un alphabet cunéiforme consonantique ? Bien avant encore, les Égyptiens ont su, dès le IVe millénaire av. J.-C., isoler les consonnes de leur langue et les utiliser pour noter les noms propres. Pourquoi ces signes ne pouvaient-ils pas être utilisés pour noter tous les mots de la langue égyptienne ? Dans l'empire de Méroé, une écriture composée de signes alphabétiques et de signes syllabiques cache une langue, laquelle ? Toutes ces initiatives, de même que l'adoption de l'alphabet, né sur le territoire charnière entre la Mésopotamie et l'Égypte, posent le problème de la relation entre l'oral et l'écrit. L'alphabet phénicien est transmis à l'Occident par les Grecs qui l'adoptent et fixent la notation des voyelles. Cet alphabet, d'origine sémitique, qui, par l'intermédiaire de l'étrusque, donne naissance à l'alphabet latin, peut donc transcrire aussi des langues indo-européennes. L'alphabet a-t-il favorisé la communication ? Si toutes les langues étaient écrites alphabétiquement, la lecture en serait-elle plus facile ? De plus en plus dominateur, grâce à l'invention de l'imprimerie, l'alphabet sera-t-il détrôné par l'écriture électronique ou par l'image ?

A useful work for all interested in the history of the alphabet. Hamilton shows a direct correspondence between the West Semitic alphabet and its proposed Egyptian counterparts. Following an examination of the various Egyptian prototypes, each grapheme of the various "Canaanite" scripts is shown and described in exhaustive detail in terms of feature and stance. Subsequently, each individual unit is augmented with a survey of the development of the names of letters and their vocalization, with the author pointing to acrophony, rhyming, and "clipping" as factors in their nomenclature. Hamilton also provides summary charts of the ancient Egyptian models and West Semitic derivatives.

Despite the flourishing of epichoric studies on the Archaic Greek scripts in the 1960s, embodied by archaeologists Lilian Hamilton Jeffery and Margherita Guarducci, most scholarship on early alphabetic writing in Greece has focused on questions around the origin of ‘the Greek alphabet’ instead of acknowledging the diversity of alphabetic systems that emerged in Geometric and Archaic times. The present book proposes to bring back the epichoric approach by focusing on the different ways in which the earliest epigraphic evidence represents the spoken Greek dialects. However, instead of continuing the palaeographic methodology of previous studies, this analysis follows the latest trends in grapholinguistics, more specifically the methodology of comparative graphematics. By examining the grapheme-phoneme relationships across Greek-speaking regions, it is possible to recognize that diversity and to draw connections with neighboring contemporaneous alphabets, such as those for Phrygian, Eteocretan and Etruscan. This work, carried out within the Contexts of and Relations between Early Writing Systems (CREWS) project, aims to contribute towards the conceptualization of the so-called epichoric scripts as independent alphabets, as well as their framing within the ecology of ancient Mediterranean writing systems. Contexts of and Relations between Early Writing Systems (CREWS) is a project funded by the European Research Council under the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation program (grant agreement No. 677758), and based in the Faculty of Classics, University of Cambridge.

Historians consider the biblical account about Chedorlaomer's campaign against Sodom (1954 BCE) as a pious fiction. However, the Gospels refer to it as a real story (Heb 7:1) and a chronological reconstruction based on synchronisms shows that, among dynasties from Sumerian lists, the 3rd and last Elamite king of the Awan I dynasty was Kudur-Lagamar (1990-1954). The Spartoli tablets (c. 650 BCE) describe this famous attack of Babylonia by a coalition of evil kings named Kudur-KUKUmal, king of Elam, Tudḫula, king of Gutium, and Eri-Aku [king of Larsa]. The route of Chedorlaomer and the description of his actions show that this king came to this region near Egypt in order to maintain control over this new land trade route. This ambitious project had to have worried Amenemhat I because southern Canaan was a big source of supply. In order to protect Egypt, Amenemhat I built the "Walls of the Ruler". One can notice that the area of Sodom was called Sutu[m] in execration texts (then Moab after 1800 BCE).

Dans ce laboratoire qu'est le bassin méditerranéen, on observe la naissance, la transformation et la disparition de nombreuses formes graphiques. Sur son pourtour et sur ses îles se retrouvent toutes sortes de systèmes d'écriture : pictogrammes et idéogrammes chez les Mésopotamiens, les Egyptiens, les Hittites, les Crétois, syllabaires chez les Crétois, alphabets consonantiques dans le monde sud-sémitique, à Ougarit et chez les Phéniciens, alphabets comprenant voyelles et consonnes en Grèce, puis chez les Etrusques et les Romains. Il constitue un creuset unique dans l'histoire des écritures. Le passage d'un système idéographique à une notation phonétique s'est inscrit sur plusieurs siècles, tandis que certaines cultures ont conservé durant trois mille ans des écritures mixtes, par fidélité à leurs traditions. Une autre distinction apparaît entre les systèmes phonétiques : les langues sémitiques n'écrivent que les consonnes, les langues indo-européennes, elles, transcrivent les sons vocaliques aussi bien que consonantiques. Le choix d'une écriture a une très grande influence sur la manière de penser la réalité, de former son image de soi et de concevoir une esthétique. Internet, consacre-t-il le couronnement de l'ère alphabétique ou annonce-t-il sa fin ? A ces questions, des préhistoriens, épigraphistes, linguistes, historiens, artistes, chercheurs en communication et sciences sociales, parmi lesquels Henry de Lumley, Aaron Dolgopolsky, André Lemaire et Claude Hagège ont essayé de répondre au cours du Forum sur les Langues et écritures de la Méditerranée que l'Association Alphabets a organisé en mars 2001.

Karl Jaspers dubbed the period, 800-400 BCE, the Axial Age. Axial it was, for out of it emerged the idea of Greek culture, with its influence on Roman and later empires. Jaspers’ Axial Age was the chrysalis of culturally-meaningful modernity. Trade expands intellectual horizons. The economic and political effects permeate such social domains as technology, language and worldview. In the last category, many issues take on an emotional freight – the birth of science, monotheism, philosophy, even theory itself. Cultural Contact and Appropriation in the Axial-Age Mediterranean World: A Periplos, explores adaptation, resistance and reciprocity in Axial-Age Mediterranean exchange (ca. 800-300 BCE). Some essayists expand on an international discussion about myth, to which even the Church Fathers contributed. Others explore questions of how vocabulary is reapplied, or how the alphabet is reapplied, in a new environment. Detailed cases ground participants’ capacity to illustrate both the variety of the disciplinary integuments in which we now speak, one with the other, across disciplines, and the sheer complexity of constructing a workable programme for true collaboration.
