Egypt and Nubia
9 Egypt and Nubia Robert Morkot THE, EGYPTIAN E,MPIRE,IN NUBIA IN THE LATE, BRONZE AGE (t.1550-l 070B CE) Introdu,ct'ion:sef-def,nit'ion an,d. the ,irnperi.ol con.cept in Egypt There can be litde doubt rhat the Egyptian pharaohs and the elite of the New I(ngdom viewed themselvesas rulers of an empire. This universal rule is clearly expressedin royal imagerv and terminology (Grimal f986). The pharaoh is styied asthe "Ruler of all that sun encircles" and from the mid-f 8th Dynasry the tides "I(ing of kings" and "Ruler of the rulers," with the variants "Lion" or "Sun of the Rulers," emphasizepharaoh's preeminence among other monarchs.The imagery of krngship is of the all-conquering heroic ruler subjecting a1lforeign lands.The lcingin human form smiteshis enemies.Or, asthe celestialconqueror in the form of the sphinx, he tramples them under foot. In the reigns of Amenhotep III and Akhenaten this imagery was exrended to the king's wife who became the conqueror of the female enemies of Egypt, appearing like her husbandin both human and sphinx forms (Morkot 1986). The appropriateter- minology also appeared; Queen Tiye became "Mistress of all women" and "Great of terror in the foreign lands." Empire, for the Egyptians,equals force - "all lands are under his feet." This metaphor is graphically expressedin the royal footstools and painted paths decorated \Mith images of bound foreign rulers, crushed by pharaoh as he walked or sar. This imagery and terminologv indicates that the Egyptian attirude to their empire was universally applied irrespective of the peoples or countries. -

Section 5 the Cultures of Nubia
Chapter 3 Ancient Egypt and Nubia Objectives Examine the relationship between Nubia and Egypt. Learn about the Nubian kingdoms centered in Kerma, Napata, and Meroe. Key Terms ore – a mineral or a combination of minerals mined for the production of metals Lower Nubia – the region of ancient Nubia between the first and second Nile cataracts Upper Nubia – the region of ancient Nubia between the second and sixth Nile cataracts artisan – a worker who is skilled in crafting goods by hand In 690 B.C., Taharka, the greatest ruler of his dynasty, was crowned king of both Nubia and Egypt. Taharka’s mother journeyed 1200 miles from Nubia to Memphis to see his coronation. Nubia and Egypt Archaeologists have found pottery, weapons, and jewelry at Nubian burial sites dating back to 6000 B.C. There was also evidence of trading. Land of the Bow The region of Nubia was located south of ancient Egypt, beyond the first cataract of the Nile River. For most of their long history, Nubia and Egypt were peaceful, friendly neighbors. The Egyptians called Nubia “Ta Sety”, the land of the bow. The Nubian archers were so skilled that the Egyptians hired them for their armies. Valuable Resources Egypt valued Nubia for its rich mineral resources such as gold, copper, and iron ore. Because of its location, Nubia became a bridge for goods traveling between central Africa and Egypt. Powerful kingdoms rose in Upper Nubia, the region between the second and sixth Nile cataracts, rivaling Egypt for control of land. The most powerful of these kingdoms were in the cities of Kerma, Napata, and Meroe, ruled by Kushites, people who lived in southern Nubia. -
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. -

The Frontier Region Between Ancient Nubia and Egypt 3700 BC – AD 500
BOOK REVIEW Between Two Worlds: The Frontier Region Between Ancient Nubia and Egypt 3700 BC – AD 500. By László Török. Probleme der Ägyptologie 29, Brill, Leiden/Boston, 2009, xxii + 651 pp. ISBN 978-90-04-17197-8. € 180.00. In Between Two Worlds, László Török examines the long the great powers that lay to the north and south. In history of interaction between ancient Egypt and Nubia taking this stance, Török is in tune with recent trends through the lens of Lower Nubia, the region between in Nubian studies that eschew older Egyptocentric the first and second cataracts of the Nile (today mostly perspectives derived from simplistic models stressing a in Egypt). Török begins with an introduction and discus- dominant core (Egypt) driving political, economic and sion of Lower Nubia as a frontier between Egypt and cultural developments in a subordinate periphery (Nu- Upper Nubia (Northern Sudan, where two major Nubian bia). Although he largely rejects the use of “models”, civilizations arose, the Kerman and Napatan/Meroitic Török does explicitly employ a theoretical framework kingdoms of Kush). The following fourteen chapters of acculturation and syncretism throughout his work. highlight Lower Nubia as a locus of sometimes peaceful The term “acculturation” has tended in the past to be but often bellicose interaction between Egyptians and associated with a core-periphery paradigm (e.g., CUSI C K Nubians from the late Neolithic to the Iron Age, organ- 1998).

WILSON INTRODUCTION James Henry Breasted was the first American whose profes- sion was ancient history. In that fact reside the corollaries that the times were ripe for such a study and that this man shaped the course of the study. These statements do scant justice to a man whose presentation of material carried his influence beyond the limits of college halls and made him a figure of international significance. He brought to America the realization that our cultural ancestry is rooted in the distant past and made European scholars aware of the peculiar contribution which American scholarship might make to humanistic research. Although he was essentially an historian and his life was de- voted to a study of the "career of man," he insisted that this study could not be divorced from the data presented by the physical and natural scientists. He gave active support to re- search in geology and palaeontology, in order that the story of man's sojourn on this planet might be as complete as possible. FAMILY DATA The Breasted line runs back to the Netherlands and thence ultimately to Denmark. -
