Khartoum has also declared a state of emergency given the rising water level. • Floods and rising water levels have been reported in Sinja in Sennar State along the Blue Nile – there Assessment team in Eddain, East Darfur State. ©Nesserldin Mohamed- UNHCR 2020 are strong projections of increased water levels on the flood response along the Blue Nile bank for the next days. • In a flight sponsored by UAE, UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency, airlifted 100 tons of plastic sheeting, blankets and sleeping mats from its warehouse in Dubai to Khartoum. They will be distributed to refugees, Internally Displaced People (IDPs) and host communities that have been severely affected by the heavy rains and floods from The purchase of the NFIs was supported by the Sudan Humanitarian Fund (SHF) for the NFI Core pipeline. • Due to heavy rains expected over the highlands of Ethiopia and Eritrea, the river Gash is still threatening Kassala town and surrounding areas, while the situation in Khor Baraka in the Red Sea State and Butana plains as well as Khartoum State is still critical due to the levels of the White Nile. • An estimated 49,100 households are destroyed, with some 50,200 households partially damaged (including broken walls, roofing) across Sudan. Khartoum, North Darfur, Sennar, West Kordofan, and Kassala States are the top five most affected by floods. • The ES/NFI Sector is providing full and partial NFI kits depending on the need. The full NFI Kit includes plastic sheets, jerry cans, kitchen sets, blankets, and sleeping mats. Challenges and gaps in the response • Shelter and NFI to funding support, with an estimated 100,000 households in need of a type of Sector assistance. • Coordination with local communities in urban centers. • Delays on the assessment due to heavy rains and road conditions in many locations. • Local procurement cost of key NFI items, and fuel subsidies. • Competing priorities across the Sudan, for newly displaced persons vs. floods, especially in Darfur. 1 ES/NFI Sector Sudan 2020 2 ES/NFI Sector Sudan 2020 Updates per state State Assessments/Response Planned Response • Continued planned response by DRC in Mayo in Jabal Awaliya Locality – estimated target is 500 household.

  • Assessment of Groundwater Potentiality of Northwest Butana Area, Central Sudan Elsayed Zeinelabdein1, K.A., Elsheikh2, A.E.M., Abdalla, N.H.3
    Assessment of groundwater potentiality of northwest Butana Area, Central Sudan Elsayed Zeinelabdein1, K.A., Elsheikh2, A.E.M., Abdalla, N.H.3 1Faculty of Petroleum and minerals – Al Neelain University – Khartoum – Sudan 2 Faculty of Petroleum and minerals – Al Neelain University – Khartoum – Sudan, [email protected], 3Faculty of Petroleum and minerals – Al Neelain University – Khartoum – Sudan, [email protected] Abstract Butana plain is located 150 Km east of Khartoum, it is the most important area for livestock breeding in Sudan. Nevertheless, the area suffers from acute shortage in water supply, especially in dry seasons due to climatic degradation. Considerable efforts were made to solve this problem, but little success was attained. Hills, hillocks, ridges and low lands are the most conspicuous topographic features in the studied area. Geologically, it is covered by Cenozoic sediments and sandstone of Cretaceous age unconformably overlying the Precambrian basement rocks. The objective of the present study is to assess the availability of groundwater resources using remote sensing, geophysical survey and well inventory methods. Different digital image processing techniques were applied to enhance the geological and structural details of the study area, using Landsat (ETM +7) images. Geo-electrical survey was conducted using Vertical Electrical Sounding (VES) technique with Schlumberger array. Resistivity measurements were conducted along profiles perpendicular to the main fracture systems in the area. The present study confirms the existence of two groundwater aquifers. An upper aquifer composed mainly of alluvial sediments and shallow sandstone is found at depths ranging between 20- 30 m, while the lower aquifer is predominantly Cretaceous sandstone found at depths below 50 m.

Carolin Johansson, Department of Archaeology and Ancient History, Uppsala University, Box 626 SE-75126 Uppsala, Sweden. Abstract The Scandinavian Joint Expedition to Sudanese Nubia (SJE) was one of the substantial contributions of crucial salvage archaeology within the International Nubian Campaign which was pursued in conjunction with the building of the High Dam at Aswan in the early 1960’s. A large quantity of archaeological data was collected by the SJE in a continuous area of northernmost Sudan and published during the subsequent decades. The present study aimed at transferring the geographical aspects of that data into a digital format thus enabling spatial enquires on the archaeological information to be performed in a computerised manner within a geographical information system (GIS). The landscape of the concession area, which is now completely submerged by the water masses of Lake Nasser, was digitally reconstructed in order to approximate the physical environment which the human societies of ancient Nubia inhabited.

  • Inferring the Social Organization of Medieval Upper Nubia Using Nonmetric Traits of the Skull
    INFERRING THE SOCIAL ORGANIZATION OF MEDIEVAL UPPER NUBIA USING NONMETRIC TRAITS OF THE SKULL By Emily Rose Streetman A DISSERTATION Submitted to Michigan State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Anthropology – Doctor of Philosophy 2018 ABSTRACT INFERRING THE SOCIAL ORGANIZATION OF MEDIEVAL UPPER NUBIA USING NONMETRIC TRAITS OF THE SKULL By Emily Rose Streetman Medieval Nubia was composed of three kingdoms located along the Middle Nile. Although biological distance (biodistance) research has demonstrated population continuity in this region, little is known about the population structure or social organization in any single era. The Medieval Period (550–1500 CE) was a particularly dynamic one in Nubia, since all three kingdoms converted to Christianity in the mid-sixth century CE, and neighboring polities converted to Islam a century later. The political ramifications of these conversions have been studied at a large scale, but little research has investigated the local processes that comprise social organization during this time. Minimal research has used contemporary populations to analyze regional, local, and family level social organization in Nubia. Biodistances were investigated through nonmetric traits of the skull in six cemeteries from three archaeologically defined sites in modern northern Sudan, using Mahalanobis D2 distance, among other statistical tests. The six cemeteries in this study are from Mis Island (three cemeteries), Kulubnarti (two cemeteries), and Gabati (one cemetery). Mis Island and Kulubnarti were part of the same kingdom (Makuria) from the seventh century on, while Gabati was part of the far Upper Nubian kingdom of Alwa. When cemeteries from the same sites are pooled, results show that the two more northerly sites were more closely related, while the third site, located in a different kingdom, was biologically distant.

  • Thoughts on Meroitic Water Management and Its Role in Royal Legitimization
    Who gets the lion’s share? Thoughts on Meroitic water management and its role in royal legitimization Petra Weschenfelder From the mid 4th century BC to about the 4th century AD the Meroitic Kingdom exercised politic control over the banks of the River Nile south of Egypt. Instead of confining itself to the river banks the Meroitic Kingdom established and maintained cult centres in a savannah area between the Rivers Nile, Blue Nile and Atbara. The area is today known as the Butana and was referred to as the Island of Meroe in antique accounts. Far from leaving the prospect of water in this semi-arid environment to the goodwill of their gods the Meroites took water management into their own hands. This might not only have served economic purposes. One of the cult centres – Musawwarat es-Sufra – shows a possible socially integrative aspect of this kind of water management.1 Based on the depictions on the lion temple dedicated to the indigenous god Apedemak the following discussion shows how the cult centres could have transported the concept of divine kingship to pastoral nomadic groups via the medium of religiously transformed water. Furthermore it suggests how the control of water and the integration of pastoral people could not only have secured the subsistence in the Meroitic heartland but even supported the Meroitic engagement in long distance trade, one of the kingdom’s major economic activities.2 1. The Meroitic Kingdom in the The Meroitic sovereigns strategically positioned Middle Nile Valley themselves as mediators in long-distance trade. Connected to several trade routes, they mediated The Meroitic Kingdom – named after its administra- between Egypt subsequently addressed as Ptole- tive centre Meroe that held the royal burial grounds – maic and Roman, and eastern, western and central flourished from the 4th century BC to the 4th century Africa, as well as Arabia and Asia through the Red AD.

  • Epizootiology of Camel Contagious Ecthyma in Eastern Sudan
    Retour au menu Epizootiology of camel contagious ecthyma in Eastern Sudan A.I. Khalafalla 1* M.E.M. Mohamed 2 Key words Summary Dromedary - Contagious ecthyma virus - Free-ranging camels in Butana, Kassala and the Blue Nile areas of the Sudan Parapoxvirus - Epidemiology - Season - were surveyed for the occurrence of camel contagious ecthyma (CCE) Sudan. between 1992 and 1994. Thirty-eight herds were found to be affected with the disease. Clinically the pox-lesions first appeared on the lips of affected animals as small papules and later developed into scabs and fissured crusts. PATHOLOGIE INFECTIEUSE communication All CCE cases occurred in young camels up to 3 years old and 97.8% of them were in camel calves less than one year old. The mean morbidity and mortality rates in calves less than one year were 60.2 and 8.8%, respectively, while the mean fatality case rate was 13%. The disease had a marked seasonality associated with rainy season and camel skin abrasion caused by eating thorny Acacia trees. INTRODUCTION MATERIALS AND METHODS The parapox virus, responsible for camel contagious ecthyma Study area (CCE), has only recently been identified (1). Formerly it was thought to be a form of camel pox (CP) since clinical symptoms of It consists of the Butana plains which lie between the main Nile, both diseases were similar (3). the Blue Nile and the Atbara River (Eastern part of Sudan). Areas South and South-West of Kassala as well as East of the Atbara CCE has been reported in Mongolia (4), Kenya (12), Kazakhstan River were also included in the survey (figure 1).

  • Sudan Country Study
    Pastoralism and Conservation in the Sudan Executive Summary Introduction On a global scale, Sudan perhaps ranks first in terms of pastoralists population size. About 66 per cent of Sudan is arid land, which is mainly pastoralists’ habitat. Pastoralism in the Sudan involves about 20 per cent of the population and accounts for almost 40 per cent of livestock wealth [Markakis, 1998: 41]. The livestock sector plays an important role in the economy of the Sudan, accounting for about 20 percent of the GDP, meeting the domestic demand for meat and about 70 percent of national milk requirements and contributing about 20 percent of the Sudan’s foreign exchange earnings. It is also a very significant source of employment for about 80 percent of the rural workforce. In the Sudan it is estimated that the total number of cattle multiplied 21 times between 1917 and 1977, camels 16 times, sheep 12 times and goats 8 times [Fouad Ibrahim, 1984, p.125 in Markakis, 1998: 42]. Their numbers are estimated to have doubled between 1965 and 1986. The rapid rate of animal population increase has been attributed to the introduction of veterinary services and the stimulation of the market. Two periods of exceptional rainfall (1919-1934 and 1950-1965) added momentum to this trend. In the early 1980s there were nearly three million heads of camels, over 20 million cattle, nearly 19 million sheep, and 14 million goats. Livestock estimates for the year 2005 are 38 million heads of cattle, 47 million sheep, 40 million goats and three million camels [Ministry of Animal Resources, 2006].

  • The Reproductive and Milk Performance Merit of Butana Cattle in Sudan
    Arch.Tierz., Dummerstorf 48 (2005) 5, 445-459 Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, Institute of Animal Sciences, Department of Animal Breeding in the Tropics and Subtropics, Germany LUTFI M.-A. MUSA, MOHAMED-KHAIR A. AHMED, KURT J. PETERS, BIRGIT ZUMBACH and KAMAL E. A. GUBARTALLA The reproductive and milk performance merit of Butana cattle in Sudan Dedicated to Prof. Dr. Peter Horst on the occasion of his 75th birthday Abstract Data from the Butana herd of Atbara Livestock Research Station were analyzed for the period 1949 – 1999. The least squares means for age at first calving, calving interval, milk yield per lactation, daily milk yield, lactation length and dry period were 45.05 ± 3.56 months, 382.38 ± 8.30 days, 1662.57 ± 108.96 kg, 6.10 ± 0.40 kg, 268.17 ± 5.56 days and 119.10 ± 8.30 days, respectively. The analysis of variance revealed that the sire and parity number influenced the studied traits, while year-season of calving influenced the milk yield per lactation, daily milk yield and lactation length. Linear and quadratic regressions on lactation length significantly influenced milk yield per lactation and daily milk yield. Heritability estimates for age at first calving, calving interval, milk yield per lactation, daily milk yield, lactation length and dry period were 0.19 ± 0.07, 0.09 ± 0.03, 0.26 ± 0.06, 0.27 ± 0.07, 0.04 ± 0.02, and 0.09 ± 0.03, respectively. This study highlighted the importance of conserving the indigenous dairy cattle breeds for future generations. The presence of significant variation and the corresponding heritability estimates give promise of reasonable genetic improvement under selective breeding with respect to milk yield characters.
