Abstract: This article discusses some evidence from two sites in the southwestern region of the southern Levant at the end of the fourth and the beginning of the third millennia BCE. The focus of this paper is on evidence from two sites in the south western region of Israel, the Halif Terrace and Amaziya, which show different degrees of intercourse between Egyptians and the indigenous population. It suggests activity related to trade and its relationship to the dispersal of Egyptian and Egyptianized material culture, the bulk of which is highly discernible in ceramic artefacts.
