Sardinia was a hub of sea routes in the Final Bronze Age, c. 1200–850 BC, connecting the Aegean and the Levant in the East with the Iberian Atlantic façade in the West at its latitudinal extremes. Although situated some 1,200 nautical miles apart, bronze working techniques on the island, specific decorations, and implement typologies were clearly related to those in western Iberia, which was a pivotal node connecting the Atlantic and Mediterranean worlds. Without doubt, individuals have travelled between and beyond both regions, and transported objects alongside technological as well as theoretical information. Although serious challenges accompanied the multi-directional intensification of interactions, the local communities had innovative responses to them, managing to integrate new people and knowledge. The general aim of this contribution is to provide a theoretical framework with which to analyse the motivations and social mechanisms for cooperation and communication that facilitated technology transfer in an environment of dispersed, socially heterogeneous communities. The exchanges and interactions within this decentralised network must have been self-organised by individuals and communities, and encompassed all forms of entanglement. Consequently, practises of self-governance, hospitality, conflict management, and inter-group communication as well as shared symbols are of central interest.

从大西洋到地中海并返回：撒丁岛、伊比利亚和青铜时代晚期网络中的知识转移

撒丁岛是最后青铜时代的海上航线枢纽。公元前1200-850年，将东部的爱琴海和黎凡特与西部的伊比利亚大西洋的纬度极端连接起来。虽然相距约 1,200 海里，但岛上的青铜加工技术、特定装饰和工具类型与伊比利亚西部的青铜加工技术明显相关，西伊比利亚是连接大西洋和地中海世界的关键节点。毫无疑问，人们在这两个地区之间和之外旅行，并在技术和理论信息的同时运输物品。尽管多方位的互动加剧带来了严峻的挑战，但当地社区对此采取了创新的应对措施，设法整合新的人员和知识。本贡献的总体目标是提供一个理论框架，用于分析在分散的、社会异质社区的环境中促进技术转让的合作和交流的动机和社会机制。这个去中心化网络中的交流和互动一定是由个人和社区自组织的，并且包含了各种形式的纠缠。因此，自治、热情好客、冲突管理、群体间沟通以及共享符号的实践是核心利益。
