description Papyri concerning river grain transport give evidence about the importance that time factor holds in the organization of State grain transport as well as in economic choices of trade’s actors. Our main goal in this contribution is so to attempt a reconstruction of grain transport times both in the context of State grain transport and in the context of grain trade. Our second goal is to study the repercussions of times of transport on the economic behavior of trade actors. To this purpose, we will focus in a first time on the specificities of Nile and maritime navigation departing from Egypt. In a second time, we will propose a quantitative analysis about grain transport times from Egyptian chôra to Alexandrian and Mediterranean redistribution markets. Finally, we will focus on public and private responses to time constraints of transportation.
