-
The article attempts to place Musandam in the context of a relationship with the ancient trade center of Hormuz. It tentatively tries to give some directions that define Musandam not only as the periphery of the Arabian Peninsula, but also as the southern hinterland of the former world trade metropolis. And in this context as an active part of the flows and activities of the strategic strait for a period of at least 400 years in Hormuz heyday between the 14th and 17th centuries.
The spatial approach is based on field research in Musandam focusing on grain production and regional mobility, conducted first in the 1970s and later in the 2010s, completed by the analysis of literature on the history of Ilormuz and the greater region. Traces of this ancient connection are still recognizable, shaping the landscape and culture of today's Musandam. - Est une partie de
