No Período de Amarna (século XIV a.C.), o Egito manteve íntimas relações diplomáticas com seus vizinhos do Oriente Médio (Mitani, Babilônia, Assíria e Hati). Esses contatos são conhecidos por nós através das Cartas de Amarna (EA) descobertas no sítio de Telel Amarna (antiga Aquetatom), no Egito. Protocolarmente, as cortes enviavam emissários às cortes vizinhas carregando consigo mensagens, escritas em tabletes de argila, e presentes. Os presentes eram sempre esperados pela corte destinatária e sua ausência, caso ocorresse, poderia gerar reclamações. O sistema, imperativamente, demandava a submissão de presentes, mas não são poucos os casos nos quais um dos parceiros falhavam com o compromisso de envio. O presente artigo discute o que estas falhas podem revelar acerca das relações desses reis e como elas elucidam as características desse sistema diplomático.
