Nubian Archaeology

Nubian archaeology studies the ancient cultures of Nubia, located along the Nile River in present-day Sudan and southern Egypt. This field explores the rich history and artifacts of civilizations that flourished there, such as the Kingdom of Kush. Archaeologists excavate sites, analyze artifacts, and conduct surveys to understand the social, political, and economic aspects of these societies. Key discoveries include pyramids, temples, and burial sites, which reveal insights into Nubia's influence on neighboring regions and its interactions with ancient Egypt. Nubian archaeology helps preserve and interpret the region's cultural heritage and history.
