To this end. a crucial document from the recently edited corpus of Aramaic Documents from Ancient Bactria - ADAB Al - will be investigated. This shall be done in the light of both comparative evidence from another corpus of Central Asian origin (the Bactrian Documents from Northern Afghanistaii) and more recent theoretical reflection on the st/·tiEra/-al limits of imperial power in the ancient world in the face of both environmental Lind socio-political factors. It shall be shown how the presence of the Achaemenid imperial structure in Central Asia encouraged - to the point of endangering its very own stability - the exacerbation of social tensions inherent in local power dynamics, which at the same time proved instrumental in imposing the imperial governing apparatus successfully. The consequences of this phenomenon, crucial as it was to the pei-petuation and expansion of the Empire in a territory such as ancient Afganistan, would become evident at the time of Alexander's invasion. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y custom: Copyright of Iranica Antiqua is the property of Peeters Publishers and its content may not be copied or emailed to multiple sites without the copyright holder's express written permission.
