“…our results indicate that contacts between Egypt and the eastern Fertile Crescent were not limited to objects and imagery (such as domesticated animals and plants, as well as writing systems), but also encompassed human migration.”
Apparently, it was known as the “Fertile Crescent” for more than one reason.
There was significant overland trade between those places, so lots of seed was sown by the frequent trade caravans.
Didn’t this guy get arrested throwing gasoline on jews?
In several cultures peddlers were used by infertile couples as sperm donors.
Probably a slave taken in battle.
The Egyptians didn’t seem to keep defeated foreign soldiers, they’d chop off their hands and then kill ‘em. And the other way around, I think Egyptian soldiers got rewarded by the hand or something.
Serai, last name Caravan — she got around.
There are several images of Old Kingdom Egyptians showing “Westerner” captives.
LOL…the very first good coffee shop I ever went to was “named Caravansari” on Chestnut St in San Francisco. She did get around!
I still have my Turkish hand coffee grinder I bought there in 1974.
More than several. Given how captives were treated, there was probably a need to make war on neighboring people just to maintain a living slave-labor workforce. Probably still a better deal than the one the Aztecs gave the losers in their "Flower Wars".
I noticed that the wiki-wacky page on Slavery in Ancient Egypt has a lot of disclaimers about, for example, how forced labor was different from slavery. ;^)
Turkish hand coffee grinder... when I was in high school we had an exchange student, that was her nickname...
Lol…I’ll bet she could grind your beans.

Considering that most labor was carried out voluntarily by farmers, after their crops were harvested, in exchange for grain to feed their families.
“ but also encompassed human migration”
A lot of genetic changes over time happen because the “migrants” kill the men and take the women.
Very controversial in, for example, India but the data doesn’t lie. In Iceland the men were Vikings but the women came from raiding Ireland.
It’s nature’s way. Build the wall.
So you grow the crops, harvest the crops, the government takes the crops and in return for you working on their project they will give you enough of the food you raised to survive.
That is not exactly voluntary.
You give the crops to the Pharaoh because that is the way it was done. Hindsight is a poor excuse for an argument. It was considered voluntary by the people, whether you agree or not. It was their culture which lasted for 3,500 years - more than we can say to day about our ‘culture’.

It was not considered voluntary. It might have been considered mandatory but not voluntary.
It was their culture which lasted for 3,500 years - more than we can say to day about our ‘culture’.
Their culture lasted about 4 generations before it exploded into war because that is about how long you have before your incest results in offspring that are retarded, lame and completely unable to produce viable offspring.
The history of Egypt is one of the country going up in flames every little bit.
If you want to use the same metric for "lasting" for Western culture as you do for Egypt we have also been around 3500 years and going strong.
