%X La mer Rouge a longtemps ¨¦t¨¦ consid¨¦r¨¦e comme un territoire sans histoire, dont les ports n¡¯ont retenu que peu l¡¯attention des historiens. La multiplication des fouilles et prospections arch¨¦ologiques et l¡¯exploration de nouvelles sources ¨¦crites permettent d¡¯envisager d¨¦sormais le   fait portuaire   en mer Rouge, de l¡¯Antiquit¨¦ ¨¤ l¡¯¨¦poque islamique, sous un jour nouveau. Les trois ¨¦tudes qui suivent mettent particuli¨¨rement en lumi¨¨re l¡¯importance les r¨¦seaux de navigation locale dans le d¨¦veloppement de la mer Rouge comme bassin d¡¯¨¦change. The Red Sea has for a long time been considered as an area without history. Moreover, few historical studies have been devoted to its ports. New data collected from excavations and archaeological surveys, or from documents, invite to write a history of the genesis and development of the ports in the Red Sea, from Antiquity to Islamic times. The three following contributions underline the major importance of local maritime networks in the constitution of the Red Sea as a cohesive economical area.
