Mirage of the Saracen: Christians and Nomads in the Sinai Peninsula in Late Antiquity - Transformation of the Classical Heritage
Walter D. Ward
Examines the ways in which Christian monks justified occupying the Sinai through creating associations between Biblical narratives and Sinai sites while assigning uncivilized, negative, and oppositional traits to the indigenous nomadic population, whom the Christians pejoratively called Saracens.
