“…Innovations in both the technology and social organization of production underwrote the expansion and intensification of farming systems in these states, which often incorporated various types of irrigation networks and segmented field systems. Such systems were designed to optimize food production through subtle technological adaptations to locally diverse soil, water, nutrient, and climate regimes (Ertsen 2010; Ortloff 1993, 1995, 2010, 2020; Purdue 2015; Rost 2020). Many state networks of intensified crop production were accretional, often reconfigured from preexisting, smaller-scale systems.…”

“…Au travers de l'étude des dispositifs hydrauliques, ces interactions socioenvironnementales sont une clé de compréhension d'une partie de l'histoire des paysages, jouant un rôle dans l'organisation des territoires et la structuration du paysage (par exemple Netherly, 1984 ;Farrington, 1980 ;Berger, 2000 ;Waters et Ravesloot, 2001 ;Tianduowa et Ersten, 2011 ;Cador et Lespez, 2012 ;Purdue et Berger, 2015 ;Cez et al à paraître). Peu d'études toutefois prennent en compte le rôle des temporalités propres aux systèmes d'irrigation dans la structuration des paysages fluviaux (Ersten, 2010 ;Purdue, 2015). Cet article explore la gamme des temporalités du système d'irrigation de Sarazm à l'époque protohistorique, non seulement le temps de sa construction et de son abandon mais aussi celui lié à son fonctionnement et à sa maintenance.…”
