摘要

摘要：本文认为，希罗多德《史记》第三卷中坎比塞斯对普萨梅尼图斯的处理，是对古波斯文本中比索顿铭文中所记载的惩罚的改编。通过概述这种做法的类型学，文章证明了波斯来源的首要地位，并提出了希罗多德在惩罚的构建中所做的一系列具体的、有计划意义的修改。由此产生的事件代表了对波斯入侵埃及所产生的问题的复杂处理，无论是在历史上还是在更广泛的历史记录中，都涉及坎比塞斯作为埃及统治者的合法性。

Barbarians at the Gate: Herodotus, Bisotun, and a Persian Punishment in Egypt

Abstract:This paper argues that Cambyses' treatment of Psammenitus in Book 3 of Herodotus' Histories constitutes the adaptation of a punishment recorded in the Old Persian text of the Bisotun inscription. By outlining a typology for the practice, the article demonstrates the primacy of a Persian source, and proposes a series of specific, programmatically significant alterations made by Herodotus in the constructi on of the punishment. The resulting episode represents a complex engagement with questions arising from the Persian invasion of Egypt both in the Histories and in the wider historical record concerning Cambyses' legitimacy as Egyptian ruler.
